water cascading into Mercury’s pool at the Alcázar Palace
Spent a lovely morning re-visiting the Alcázar Royal Palace and the Cathedral – including climbing up the Giralda tower, which I haven’t done for years – and it was great. Those two very cold beers below (served in Riedel glasses!) was the reward, much needed with 40º temps. Expect more “postcards”…
the bells! at the top of the Giralda tower
fabulous patterns and colours at the Alcázar Palace

It suddenly occurred to me around 9 pm last night that I am ON HOLIDAY!
This doesn’t mean that I’m not working as much as always, just that there are fewer tapas tours this month and that I have also made plans to travel here and there in Andalucía doing research for my new trip planning biz. So how does this qualify as being ON HOLIDAY you ask? Well, the main difference is not feeling any pressure to have to be anywhere or do anything at any particular moment. So I can just get up in the morning and deal with new things as they come up, go to the gym or takes walks whenever I want, and also comfortably get on with updating website stuff… at my leisure. Just writing this makes me want to stretch like a cat.

I have to say that this was a lovely way to welcome summer this morning. View from my room at the fabulous Parador hotel in Antequera. Heading to Archidona later on today…

You can always tell it’s officially summer in Sevilla because I start drinking beer.
