Day #18: January 26, 2013

Brace yourselves....LOTS OF PICTURES TODAY!!! We took a group trip to Córdoba (about 1.5 hours away), and we saw the famous Cathedral/Mosque and the Synagogue.  Then we saw a huge garden with lots of orange trees and fountains.  History isn't really "my thing," but it was interesting learning about Córdoba's past.  Definitely one of the best days so far!!!
 Sat next to this sweet friend, Shoshanna.  She is SUCH a dear...and we had some great bonding while sitting next to each other both ways.  
 As you can tell, the day started out a little cloudy, but after lunch, the sun came out!!!
 Inside the cathedral...there are tons of columns inside. 
 The ceiling!!!
 Sitting on the pews.
 Lots of double arcs as part of the architecture of this era.
 GROUP SHOT of all the UNC in Sevilla students.  I felt like such a mom, but I was like "Okay, y'all, can we please get a group picture?  I promise it'll be worth it!" Surprisingly, everyone was quite cooperative.  These people already know me a little too well...
 Maggie, Julia, Shoshanna, Chloe, and me.
 My ice cream buddies...we stopped to get some Dulce de Leche ice cream, and it was literally the best ice cream I have ever put in my mouth.  Tasted like Werther's Originals with extra caramel swirls!!! DQ needs to have this as their flavor of the month!!! 
 The beautiful gardens!!!
 Chloe, Julia, Emily, Shoshanna, and me.
 At the top of this "castle" tower!!! (Just now realizing that my hands are a little awkward...)
Once we got back to Sevilla, a group of us went to get tapas!!! It was a beautiful afternoon, and it was so nice to be outside enjoying yummy food with fun friends!!!
