Weekend

I can't believe that it is already our last weekend here in Seville. I finally feel like I am comfortable here and have a ton of friends, so it is really fun to make weekend plans and go out. I went with Oscars family to Palma del Rio, which was a wildlife area with a lot of beautiful sight seeing opportunities. Today, we went first to the mercadillo, a place where vendors sell a lot of Spanish things. I bought two Real Madrid jerseys, and then we went to Italica, where there are ruins from an entire roman empire. The sight seeing was beautiful, and we got to go inside a "Colosseum" where gladiator fights and lions once took place. I have seen diverse culture here like never before, and it has been awesome to get a look into the world of other people and other places, and to see ruins from the time before Christ, like I did today. I am looking forward to my last few days in Seville, and our journey to Madrid, although leaving this amazing place will be very bitter-sweet.
