We left the strange world of El Rocio for a short drive to Seville for some more traditional culture. We found a convenient site in what used to be an old monastery at Dos Hamanas. It has been sold to developers so was a bit run down, but Ok for a couple of nights. Rosemary was bombarded with seeds dropped by bats from the tree that we were parked under. We took the 30min-bus trip from outside the site into Seville.
It was very hot almost 38deg but we still managed to do most of the sites, the moorish Alcahza, huge cathedral (Christopher Columbus buried here - allegedly) and walking up the Giraldi tower which has 160 ramps to the top. Cooled off in Santa Lucia gardens and had late lunch before returning to site.
It was over 30 deg in the van until after midnight. An English couple were long terming on the site with young children, must be horrendous in mid summer. The high walls make the site into a pizza oven.
