people watchingggggg.

we just arrived back at our hotel...which was quite amazing seeing as we were completely turned around. Not in a scary...Casey's going to cry kinda way. Just in a...we'll get there eventually, walking, chilling, looking...Relaxing kinda way:)

seville has reallllllyyyyyy blown my mind. I realllllllyyyyyy enjoyed Lisbon, Portugal. Don't get me wrong. But Seville...man. Seville feels like home:) Kinda:)

it feels safe and homey and you can walk down any tiny street (even empty) and not feel like you're going to get your shit stolen. Lisbon had a way of making you feel like everyone AND their puppy was out to get you!
But here in Seville...as Jacob so perfectly said, "we feel relaxed". And that's not to say our guard is completely down. We're aware. But here we seem to fit in MUCH better:)

yep, so far Seville, Spain is hands down, our Favorite:)

UP/DOWN we started our day (at Noon;) by going and getting some smoothies and people watching. Have you EVER heard of a better way to start a day!? Nope...didn't think so. I used the above notebook, that Courts gifted me:), and took a few notes on things I loved and want to remember to wear when I get home.

LIKE: green khaki cargo pants (rolled up or not), thick leather belt and flowy neutral top tucked. Reminded me of Courts!!! And I missed getting a photo of her because of a horse. Darn:)

UP/DOWN the view from our people watching table:)



the next couple hours we just wandered the streets. Took a stroll along the river. Took note of places we'd like to come back to eat at.

UP/DOWN seeing as it is over 85 degrees today, having these clothes hanging over some of the small streets...SO nice:)



UP and an adorable little store that I want to be sure we get back to tomorrow. Today is Sunday (der) and so most stores and such are closed. Boo:(

another amazing day and it's not quite over yet. We're chilling back at the hotel for just a bit and then going to go out and get some food. We've already been having an incredible time here. I can't tell you how great it is to be doing this with Jacob. It wouldn't be the same with anyone else and I think for SO long, when we were apart, that's what it was like to be anywhere without him. I would think to myself....'this would be better with Jacob' and then I'd mentally punch myself in the throat for still thinking about him!
I'm a lucky girl to be with him today:):)

and que the puking;)

POINT: so much more to do.

we grabbed a map from the front desk just now and there are a few places we want to walk to in the next 2 days. Tomorrow we hope to:

- get a LARGE travel bag. Something with wheels and that will be checked on the flights home (and that we'll fill with one of our carry-on bags). We don't want to Accumulate bags...so we'll get a big one and get rid of a smaller one

- get some PRESENTS for family:) I'm not going to lie...shopping has been difficult around here. FIRST - you don't want to spend TOO much cause we're eating out a lot and all that. Things add up. SECOND - there's not a lot of affordable shopping and what is affordable...seems like I could get at a shopping mall in the US.
BUT we haven't given up hope:)

- GROCERY SHOP:) for snacks especially...healthy snacks:)

okay...signing off:)
