Look at this place!!
by acemj
Sevilla is probably what you think of when you imagine the romantic side of Spain. Whitewashed houses, bougainvillea hanging from windows, towers rising into blue skies, wonderful food and wine, and the sights and sounds of flamenco all contribute to make Sevilla one of the most charming cities in the world. I enjoyed taking photos of some of Sevilla's most intriuging areas. This one was taken from the Triana Bridge looking over the Guadalquivir River with a backdrop of palm trees and towers. The Barrio Santa Cruz and the Plaza Espana are also ideal locations for beautiful pictures.

The remains of CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS or his Spanish name, Cristobal Colon ( 1451 to 1506 ), are entombed in the Cathedral. A monument dedicated to his honour, created in 1890, has four figures carrying the casket. The figures represent the four kingdoms - Aragon - Castille - Leon - Navarra.

The 'Feria de Abril':
The Sevillians are great actors and put on an extraordinary performance at their annual Fería de Abril, a week-long party of drink, food and dance which takes place day and night in more than a thousand especially mounted tents. But above all it allows the men to parade on their fine horses and the women to dance in brilliantly coloured gypsy dresses.
Bag it - grocery stores
by betis1
What do do when the person at the checkout counter of the grocery store tosses a few plastic bags in the direction of your groceries? Put your stuff in a bag, of course! Unlike the U.S. don't expect anyone to come by and bag your groceries for you. You're expected to pack them yourself in most any supermarket so the checker can move on to the next person in line. Likewise, you are expected to take all of your groceries out of the cart or basket and place them on the conveyer belt for the checker to ring you up.
