The world's largest wooden structure is right here in Sevilla! This amazing piece of architecture was recently completed earlier this year.

Corrida del Toro
One Sunday, we went to a bullfight in the Plaza de Toros. I was a little skeptical about seeing 6 bulls being killed, but the strong traditional background drew me in. The bullfight or corrida del toro was really an art form and Sevilla is famous for this antique form of entertainment.

Granada and Nerja
First, we visited the Alhambra, a which is a huge area containing palaces, forts, and gardens. It was used by the Muslim leaders before the Christians ruled Spain.
A view of Granada.
Later that night, we went to one of the highest points in the city to take pictures. It was a very exhausting walk. There was literally snow on top of the mountains in the distance.
This is the beach in Nerja where we spent most of the day laying out and swimming. Instead of sand, the beach is covered in small rocks. We found some really beautiful pieces of sea glass there.
