SPAIN Part III

We're in Hong Kong at the moment, but our blog is still stuck in Spain.

Here's another installation of photos - this time from Sevilla, our favorite city of the trip.

Charming and bodega-laden, Sevilla has managed to retain its turn-of-the-century charisma despite the high number of tourists trawling the streets. This kind of old-world beauty amidst 21st century tourism reminded us of Venice, whose magic shone through in a similar way.

Updated to add: GO SOX!
