este es la vida.

Howdy yall :) Sevilla is great - I got to see the Alcázar today, which was AMAZING. it was Moorish architecture, much like the Alhombra in Granada, but it´s got COLOR and it was really incredible. I really enjoyed it. And man, these people knew how to make their palaces decadent, especially the gardens. It suddenly makes me want to landscape. haha. Everywhere we go there are incredible gardens... I am loving it. Last night the hostal had a dinner party and there were 30 or 40 people on the rooftop patio hanging out, and then this girl who has been studying in Sevilla for the last semester took us to her favorite place in town - an outdoor bar in a park nearby here. It was kind of like the other place, with candles and tapestries and a really cool atmosphere. I´m excited that I know about it, and i definately intend to return! Oh, and on the way to the park was the University of Sevilla, whichi s where I think I´m taking classes, and it is just beautiful! It´s actually a landmark that guide books advise tourists to check out. We were walking by it and all these people kept saying ¨Kelly! That´s your school! I can´t believe you get to go to school there!¨ It rocked! haha.

By the way, this afternoon i spent a lot of time reading and getting sun, then i took a nap. Man, this is the life. :) I´m off to freshen up and get ready for tonight. It´s Shaun´s last night in Spain (he takes the highspeed train to Madrid in the morning and then flies home), so we´re going to try and find something cool to do. so yall have a great day... i can´t tell you how relaxed i am right now... i highly recommend going to europe! it´s great! and take advantage of siesta! :)
