We took the tram down to the Plaza de Espana, built as the Spanish pavilion for the World's Fair here in 1929. It's a giant semi-circle, with a moat, a fountain, and a huge plaza. Beautiful tiles represent each province of Spain, from A to Z.
Later we walked to the nearby University of Seville, which is housed in the old Royal Tobacco Factory. We each had a lemon Fanta in the student cafe, full of students with laptops; the cafe is a modern corner (modern tables, chairs and large glass doors) in an old building, but with marble floors.

Our search for a laundromat led us past this great cafe where we enjoyed a snack and conversation |

Inside the cafe were the usual hams hanging by a foot... |
