It hardly ever rains in Seville. But when it rains, it pours.Yesterday, a torrential downpour hit Seville on and off from the wee hours of the morning to the late hours of the night. I could have used one of those water taxis I took throughout Venice (photo at right). In Seville, a man stood up to his knees in water right outside where I work. Later in the day, the area around my house was nearly inaccessible, as streets were flooded and sidewalks were reduced to a few inches wide.
Not to mention transportation: I could have gotten to school faster on a camel yesterday than taking the bus. When a few inches of rain fall in Seville, it's like the sky is falling.
Meanwhile, the day has finally come. It's less than 24 hours away (the time of post is right!). Tomorrow, I'm there.
Prague.

Josh,
I loved Venice just as much as Mom. Especially when Mom got pooped on by a bird in San Marcos Square.
I guess I'll be eating for me, you, Mom Mom & Pop Pop as well. We'll miss you on Turkey Day, but we know you'll be having fun!
Guess Who?
Sounds like you're having a great time, you are so fortunate to be able to see all this, it looks beautiful.
