So after resting my sad and sorry feet all weekend I ended up out and about all day! First stop was the official Sevilla launch for the fabulous Tío Pepe en Rama, which meant being on my feet quite a bit (though I took the tram part of the way there)….
Then it was home again to rest up for a couple of hours before my Sherry & Tapas Tour. Peter has been helping me out lately by doing some of my tapas tours, but this is one that I have to do myself. As you can see, it went very well…
After that I was on my way home with Peter, who’d come to meet me at the final stop, when we got kidnapped by the owners of a new bar in my barrio. They were holding a pre-feria party – including lots of fried fish and fino – and invited us in. Well, would you have said no…?
So today I’ve been a good girl and have stayed in resting up for more tours starting mañana. How was your Monday?

Tío Pepe time with my favourite venenciador Jesús Delgado.
I want to learn how to do this!

It was a crazy busy day, starting off with catching an earlyish train to Jerez for a massive wine tasting – about 50 wineries from across Spain were showing off their best. This was followed by this fabulous lunch you can see up there, after which I had a bit of time to catch up with my friend Sylvie who happened to be in town for the day before I had to race back to the station to get the train back home (made it with 7 minutes to spare). As soon as I got back to Sevilla I took the tram to the centre in time to pick up my tapas tour clients for the evening. Phew! I’d like to write more about the wine tasting event on Azahar in Sevilla. Perhaps next week…?

I have new neighbours! Valenska and Fernando – Paladar y Tomar on Twitter – recently moved to Sevilla from Barcelona, and yesterday we got to meet in person. A lunchtime tapeo wandering through sunny azahar-scented streets that didn’t finish until almost 9 pm… I guess you could say we hit it off. Lovely people with much wit and charm. I hope to see them often.
How was your Sunday?
