Carmona

18 09 2008

Today we headed for Carmona which is pretty much the first town you come to the E5 motorway.

We said our goodbyes to Cadiz happy in the knowledge we will not have to visit again !!

We headed towards Seville first. Lisa wanted to visit Sephora, a department store she discovered on her last visit to Barcelona. That bag and shoes were calling her name.

Unfortunately the bag was found. Sadly it was the wrong colour !!!

We did however manage to find chocolate and churros. This is a doughnut like consistency without anything inside which you dip in blamanche style hot chocolate.

We got back in the ‘van’ our description for our people carrier and headed for Carmona.

The drive to Carmona was uneventful except when we got into Carmona. Like Ronda we faced very ‘thin’ (Ben’s description of narrow streets). The journey was not as traumatic and Ben was not shaking and requiring a beer at the top.

We decided it would be prudent not to drive into town so we walked down and saw the square. This was not much to write home about but among it’s many churches was an absolute exquisite one with a gorgeous blue and gold roof next to a high tower.

After dinner we retired to bed ready for Cordoba tomorrow.
