A Beautiful City

Well it feels a little chilly after the beautiful sun of Seville.  It was a lovely city break and we loved it.  It has Moorish Architecture, beautiful gardens and Palaces.
I will just give you a little feel of this beautiful city.


This was the name of our hotel a beautiful small hotel, very stylish and definitely one I would recommend, Casa No 7
I know this is difficult to see but they had these annoying bars, but the colours of the flamenco costumes were stunning!


This is the Alcazar a beautiful Palace, I could bore you to death with lots of photos but I think these just capture the Palace.  It is also a place where I think brides can come and have their photos taken and I managed to capture this one, it is so lovely that they base their wedding dresses on the traditional flamenco dress.


An elegant guest with the lovely headdress!


This is the Place to Espana, the tiles where just spectacular.Then in contrast one evening we came across this Architectural monster, they call it the Mushroom, not too sure what it was all about as was not in the guide books, but looked amazing against the night-time skyline.
 Pastries to die for!
I love these lanterns
I
I came across this vintage shop and loved this little chair
We also visited Casa de Pilatos yes named after Pontius Pilate as the palace is inspired by his Palace in Jerusalem!

the colour of these walls so warm and sunny
and these tiles were so beautiful.
Well we are home now and Autumn seems to be creeping in this evening I can't see out of the window because we are shrouded in mist, perhaps tomorrow will be sunny. Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

You Guessed it was a Wedding Anniversary!!

Thank you everyone for all your lovely comments on my last post, I know it has been a while but it seems to have been a very busy time at the moment.  But you might have guessed that it was a special anniversary for us. So hard to believe but we had a lovely time and if any one wants a special event then I couldn't recommend more where we had ours in the beautiful Combe House Devon Hotel. 


So here is just a few photos of our lovely day.

 Friends and family coming together, there was such joy and fun that day

 My long time very special friend

and of course a very lovely lady my mother who looked amazing.
It was a very special day for the both of us and of course we stayed the night in one of their beautiful rooms. Now it is still busy busy as we are getting ready for a short break to Seville staying in a hotel called Casa Numero 7 we have never been to Spain so this will be a new adventure. I am sorry if I have not been able to visit you lately but hope to catch up with everyone this week. Off to sort out the garden today hopefully the showers will bypass Devon!!!
