All week different brotherhoods have been leaving Sevilla from various parts of town for the annual pilgramage to Rocío. This is the Hermandad de Nuestra Señora del Rocío de Sevilla, gathered in Plaza Virgen de los Reyes. More photos below…

So… uh oh!… last night I signed up for a month free trial thingy with HBO. I already get to see some HBO series with my Movistar package (for example, Game of Thrones) but I was particularly interested in seeing Chernobyl, which everyone is raving about. So I signed up. No problem, one month and I’m outta there, right?
Or will I be??
My first thought after perusing the series and films on offer was that I should have done this in July or August, when I’d have more free time. There is just so much good shit there! Aside from Chernobyl I also have Killing Eve, Handmade’s Tale, Big Little Lies and the Deadwood movie lined up. And looking back, there always has been great shit there (The Wire, Sopranos, even SATC). So now what? Should I swap Netflix for HBO? Help?

I thought after my day out to Feria on Monday that was going to be IT for me this year, but I somehow ended up back there yesterday. Bit of a wander round, took some photos, and then home again. But that’s really IT now. Until next year.

Big news! The Michelin gala for the presentation of the 2020 guide for Spain and Portugal will be held in Sevilla on November 20th at the Lope de Vega theatre. I was invited to the press conference announcing the event, which took place in the beautiful Alcázar gardens. Hoping I’ll also get an ivite to the gala 😉 .

Summer temps have arrived – 30º and higher all week – so it’s time to put away the duvet and sip strawberry daiquiris on a shady rooftop next to the pool. 🙂
