Reales Alcazares and More...

Recently we visited the Reales Alcazares as a group. I was quite impressed with the idea that this is were the king and queen stay when they are in Seville. The gardens inside were amazing as were the fountains and just the buildings in general. Unfortunately, my camera died about 10 minutes into the tour. I managed to snap a few pictures before the battery died and I took a few with my phone but I was slightly disappointed about this.

Later today, we will be leaving on a bus to Portugal! I am beyond excited for this side trip! It took me a while to figure out what I was going to do on this weekend because it was originally scheduled at Morocco but with the international climate the way it has been lately, it wasn't a safe option. Because of this, I had looked into Barcelona, Valencia, and even Paris. When everything just fell through or wasn't a good idea, Portugal was offered to us instead of Morocco. As soon as I heard this, I decided that this was where I wanted to go.

So right now I am finishing packing my things for our beach weekend that I am thrilled about. I am sure it is going to be beautiful. Supposedly there is a boat that we can go out on called a "sangria cruise". I plan on signing up for this but I am not sure about the surfing that they are offering. I guess time will tell what I end up doing....

Until next time, hasta luego!
