We explored Sevilla the day we were leaving back to Barcelona. We took a carriage ride with Chico (the Horse) around town, which included a large plaza and famous park. Our horse driver (?)/tour guide gave us detailed background information of all the places we passed... in Spanish. We made all the appropriate noises and acted like we knew what he was saying. He was very nice. We then went to Sevilla's famous cathedral, which was formerly a mosque. The only remnant of it's Moorish past was the bell tower, which was originally a minaret. We climbed thirty-four winding ramps (not stairs) to get to the top. It was hard. And then we had to race back to catch the bus to the airport.
