Espana Dos

Finally, some pics!!! We are sorry it has taken so long. The internet is like gold around here, scarce and expensive. Anyway, here are a few photos from Spain...

This picture is of the Catherdral in Sevilla, obvisouly taken at night. As we may have mentioned in a prior post, we stayed about 15 minutes from the Cathedral and really enjoyed walking the narrow, lamplit alleys at night, which seemed to be bustling at all hours. Near the cathedral, we got more than our fill of tapas and sangria and were able to burn it off on the way back home!










This picture is an overhead shot of Las Ramblas from a tram car we took over Barcelona. We stayed right off Las Ramblas in a hostel whose guests varied from young high schoolers to older senior citizens. Somewhat bizarre, but since it was centrally located, we couldnt complain. Anyway, we managed to walk up and down Las Ramblas, which apparently is a combination of many La Rambla (something Lindsay had to explain to me) and really enjoyed walking through markets and watching the tourists gawk at and take pictures of crazy people standing still in costumes.













This is a picture of the other tram frmo our tram. It was actually a pretty scary ride as the windows were open and the trams shook a bunch. Also, it looked as theough they hadnt been serviced since the Olympics, so we were definitely happy when we made it back to the launchpoint, a rusty tower with a broken down elevator.













Lastly, a picture of me holding hands with the famous Gaudi lizzard in Guell Park. It only took me about 15 minutes to get in there for the picture because the tiled lizzard was being mobbed by individual herds of tourists who were sitting on it, kissing it, humping it, licking it, and all other bizzare acts that tourists believe are okay because of their groupthink deems them so.
