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?

With Semana Santa just a week away, this is becoming a common sight. Costalero practice. Usually done late at night or on Sunday mornings, to avoid disrupting traffic. I’d sure hate to be the guy in the middle…

This ALWAYS grosses me out. Bread baskets re-stacked and reused after being on dirty tables, bar stools, even the floor… never cleaned, the serviettes lining them rarely changed. And in the worst case scenarios, unused bread gets “recycled”. Does this happen in other countries?
