From Salema to Sevilla
SPAIN | Friday, 7 September 2007 | Views [918]
We take a fine luxury liner bus after dropping off our car in Lagos,
direct to Sevilla, Spain. We've spent time in Sevilla a few years ago,
it's a gorgeous little historical town, with parks, museums, placa's
and architecture that's full of culture and history. We think Sevilla
is one of the most beautiful cities we've been to in Spain and would
highly recommend it to anyone looking to visit. The only challenge is
that we've arrived at peak season, and there's extremely limited
accommodation. Darrin sits on the corner with our bags, while I go out
to hunt for accommodations this time. Over an hour later I come back.
Most decent "no-star" hostels, under $100/night are "finished or
completo." No rooms available. I finally find one, a smokey dungeon
type of a place with a room with no ventilation. For one night I think
we can deal with it. By now, thought, it's taken us all afternoon to
make it on foot from the bus station to the informacion de touristico
office, to a place that has a room... We have a really sad meal at Mc
Donald's and call it a night, getting ourselves a bit of sleep before
we head off on our bus in the morning to Tarifa.
