Scavenger Hunt
We had a scavenger hunt around the city and it was a ton of fun. I saw so many monuments and the Cathedral and new parts of the city. There's just so much to see! I feel like 5 mnths from now there will still be parts of Sevilla I haven't yet been to. My favorite part of the scavenger hunt was the end when we ended up at Plaza Nueva, which is in El Centro. The city center was especially bustling because it was the first warm day in awhile. So many people were out strolling and shopping and the street performers even came out. There was one guy randomly dressed up like Mickey Mouse, someone else who looked like a Spanish version of Aladdin, and another who had a lifesize fake couple on his back and would hunch over, hidding under the woman's skirt, and make them dance (see pic above). My favorite street perform hands down, though, was the flamenco performace. A few of us just happened to stumble upon the performance when we were leaving the center...it totally made my day!...well that in addition to stumbling upon a Spanish couple getting married. We saw the entire bridal party and watched them take bridal party photos. Everyone looked so pretty, but the outfits were DEFINITLEY Spanish style! I invaded their privacy and took a subtle photo :D
