Where I stayed
Abby's blog entry
Seville was so cool ! For me the highlights of the trip was seeing the flaminco dancers. Unfortunatly for me and my brothers our seats were behind the show but I still really liked it. Another highlight was the bull fighting ring! We got a tour and some really good pictures. We learned alot about bull fightes.The greatest matador ever was a boy, he started fighting bulls when he was only 9 years old! He died in the ring when he was 20. In a bullfight, if the bull kills the matador he wins the fight but he does not win a prize. Instead the bull and his mother are killed! I do not think that is a fair rule.
My Mom and I loved the small streets and alleyways. We bought our charms on the last day in Cadiz. We had to hurry because all the shops close at noon or 1:00 on Saturdays. My Mom's charm is a bull and mine is a matador - perfect for Spain!

Poor bulls and moms
Hi Abby, I feel the same way you do about the bull winning the fight and then being killed along with his mom. I dont think it is fair.
I guess you guys are in Morocco by now, maybe even on your way to Namibia. Keep us informed on interesting things you see!
