June 25 - Seville
We got up, ate, cleaned up and checked out - this hotel was very nice.

We walked back to the hotel to use the washroom and then walked on to San Lorenzo y Jesus del Gran Poder (on the way we walked past a (closed) Games Workshop - who'd have thought...). Services were going on so we could look into the church but not walk around. That didn't stop us from visiting their store of course.

Once more back to the hotel to pick up our bags, ask about a place to eat, and grab a cab. We ate at Don Raimundo on Calle Argote de Moliche, its behind a hotel of the same name. The food was very good (well, Aviva keeps saying, "I still like Italy more."). They called us a cab to the train station, where we got an hour earlier train at 4P, getting into Madrid at 6:30P; we wrote our postcards on the train (hope our family gets theirs before we get home).
We got back to our hotel (same as we stayed before), and repacked our bags in preparation for our flight to Barcelona tomorrow.
