 Adiós España! by Krystynn
If you choose to go in October, better still. It's SALE time. Olé!!
A rule of thumb: DO plan your wardrobe in such a way that you'll have no problem mixing and matching your outfits and it should bring you from day to night. So in this instance, that little black dress WILL come in VERY handy for those nights when you're out partying at night or out sightseeing in the day at a local museum! :-))
Sevilla in Autumm can be hot too especially in the afternoons. Their nights are breezy & cool. So, no need to wear warm jackets when you're out walking the streets at night.
If you wish to blend in with the locals - dress like them. Smart casuals and/or elegant outfits only please. Nothing dorky! ;-)
The following is a rough guide on what I'd pack along with me for an Autumn vacation to the South of Spain (Andalucia) where the weather is more Mediterranean-like:
(1) 1 pair of jeans (in black or denim blue).
(2) 1 short skirt OR skorts
(3) 1 pair of shorts/ bermudas.
(4) 2 summer dresses.
(5) 3 or 4 cotton t-shirts/ tank tops
(6) 1 pair of sandals
(7) 1 pair of evening shoes
(8) 1 little black dress (which doubles up for day + evening events). The trendy crowd of Sevilla do dress up when they go out to party. Go ahead knock 'em dead (the guys, I mean) with your amazing dress sense!
(9) 2 nightgowns/ pyjamas.
(10) 1 bathing suit.
DON'T forget to transfer your precious Clarifying toners and astringent, foaming cleanser, Advanced Night Repair/ Vibrant night creams et al into small plastic containers - to save luggage space.
Go high-tech, baby! Go high-tech. Nothing less than a digital camera will do.
And if you must snap a picture of that hot hunk or sexy lady in Sevilla (to show off to your friends back home at what they are missing out), I suggest you bring along your new high-tech mobile phone which doubles up as a spy-camera and video recorder! ;-)
Ah, the wonders of modern technology!

It is definitely advisable to bring good walking shoes with you! Sevilla - especially the old quarters of Santa Cruz and Triana have lots of cobble stone streets and this can be quite hurtful on your feet without the right shoes!
We were in Sevilla in September and we did encounter everything from 32°C and sunshine all the way to heavy rainshowers and thunderstorms. Do pack accordingly!
loads of memory cards (or films)! Extra batteries or battery charger! We even brought a second rechargeable battery with us, which at times was a good decision!
Good guide book(s) Leave a Comment

 I remember this year!! It
was 1995 by nulain
I found the picture in internet. I remember this year! It was horrible!!
If you are comming in summer, be prepared for an extreme hot, so take light clothes. In winter it´s not too cold, between 5ºC and 16ºC, I think. From November to March, mornings and nights could be a little cold, but never less than 2ºC. During summer afternoons, 42ºC is a very usual temperature.
Nothing special. If you have any problem, there is a lot of pharmacies around the city.
Seville is a tourist city, so there is films and batteries everywhere.
If you decide to go to the beach, it´s only one hour from Seville. There are frecuently buses to Cadiz and Huelva provinces everyday. They leave from "Plaza de Armas" (take care, there are two bus station in the city)
If you can read spanish I also recommend you the page where I found the picture:

Pack light. Don't carry a lot of bags, especially if you have rented a car and are staying in the Barrio de Santa Cruz as the parking lots are few and far between. I also learned not to use a lock on my suitcase - the airline lost my luggage and rather than delivering it to my hotel as they said they would, I had to go to the airport to unlock the lock so customs could check it - which took about 5 seconds.
Comfortable shoes are a must. The streets resemble cobblestone and could be killer for heels. Leave a Comment

Don't forget your umbrella in spring. I neglected to bring one and was rained on two of three days. Also, bring a good pair of walking shoes that you won't mind getting dirty (something washable).
Always bring extra batteries, zip-lock type baggies, and loads of film. I usually took 4-6 rolls out a day. I also got into the habit of using little index cards to write notes on what I was photographing (including type of film, # of exposures, b&w/color, date & location). They turned out to be a great tool at identifying photos I had forgotten about.

bring your own dental floss if you want any,
its really expensive here, and I´ve only found it in farmacias..
lubricant (yes you know what I´m talking about) is REALLY expensive... bring your own if you use it.
If you don´t like strong smelling toiletries.. well this isn´t the place for you.. go to a herbalisteria, they (might) have something a little more tolerable, the same goes for those of you who want organic or cruelty free products.. although the latter is more easily found than the first.
Allergy pills are not a big thing here, I´m glad I brought a mega mega pack of generic claritin with me from the States. You may need them more than you think. I´ll let you know what I find here on this, if you don´t have your own. Still looking for non-drowsy pills. Leave a Comment
