Day 7 Cordoba
Today we had breakkie in the hostal and then booked our hotel in seville before heading out to sightsee. we went to the mosque but the main bit was closed so we are going tomorrow morning. Then we went to the castle but i wasnt feeling well so we headed back to the hostal for a siesta. I felt much better afta, so we walked to the supermarket to pick up lunch. we came back and have just been dossing. cordoba is a really nice place but its a little hot (43deg at 5.30 again) and theres not a huge amount to do. We cant believe its a week away today, it feels like loads more and loads less at the same time. Tomorrow its on to seville - never in one place too long!

Day 8 Corboba - Seville
This morning we got up and left for La Mesquita (the mosque). When we got back we finished packing up and left for the station after checking out (we got brekkie free!). its a shame we couldnt spend longer in the mosque because its a really nice place. We then got on the bus which went all around the city (a good way to see it) and we got off at the station. We got a high speed train here on which we ate lunch of cheese and crisp sarnies. Once here we trecked to the hotel which is rather plush i must say. We went for a pointless treck this evening. I have caught the sun slightly and we have both tanned slightly. I am tired - the air con has been too cold (!) the past couple of nights but Seville is still good. I think we prefer Cordoba though.

Day 9 Seville
Well a day of drama if ever there was one! I got up at 8.30 to have a shower. As i got in i noticed a big shadow on the shower curtain. i got out immediatly to investigate, only to find a humungus cockroach!! i woke james up but he said he wouldnt save me cos he doesnt like bugs so we had to wait for the cleaner (who was also scared of them) to come kill it and flush it down the loo. So an hour and a half late we left in search of internet and place to wash our clothes. This afternoon we plan to visit the castle and the cathedral, but we have to wait for our washing first. We plan to update next on the first day of marseille (if theres internet there) but if not it will be while we are in nice. hope everyones well n that. love 2 alll xxxxx
