Sevilla, Cordoba and Rhonda

Picking up where we left off, we finished up our tour of Sevilla with a tour of the Cathedral and the Alcazar which is like a palace. The cathedral housed the tomb of christopher collumbus which was cool to see. The Alcazar was a big empty palace with lots of cool courtyards and fountains and water features which is very much needed with all the heat. After Sevilla we drove on to Cordoba about an hour north. There we just wandered around the old town that night as much of the sights were closed. On Wednesday we toured the Mezquita which is a Mosque turned cathedral. The mosque part that still exists in parts was cool to see as this is some of the first islamic things we have seen.
