Day Four

We’ve started to pick up a couple of words here and there when we are talking to locals such as; hola (hello), me llamo (my name is), adios (goodbye), por favor (please), gracias (thank you).

We went and had a look at a cathedral in Seville, La Giralda. The main building is one of the world's largest cathedrals, at 126m (413 ft) long and 83m (272 ft) wide. Inside the cathedral, the Puerta de los Principes, stands the tomb of Seville's greatest sailor, the Italian-born Christopher Columbus (Cristóbal Colón). Then there is La Giralda, a superbly proportioned and decorated minaret whose colour changes with the light. We climbed up near the top of the cathedral and had views of the buttresses and pinnacles surrounding the cathedral and the city beyond.
