MITZI: Tranquility and Parks

As my time here is progressing I am beginning to find my niche in Sevilla.  I am still finding new things I love about the city everyday, but I am also finding my favorite places that I tend to return.
I went to the alcazar (palace) again because I loved it so much the first time.  And I fell in love with this door.

Real Alcazar.  Round two.
  One new thing that I discovered here is actually quite embarrassing.  I knew that Maria Lousia Park was very close to my apartment, and I had been in it a couple times but only for short periods of time.  I never realized how big it was and how magnificent the Plazas that rest in it are.  Specifically Plaza de España.  It’s near the entrance to the park and is simply glorious.  They just newly renovated it and it has benches tiled specifically for every city in Spain!  Very unique, I quite enjoy it.
Plaza de España
 I decided to go running through the park last weekend and was pleasantly surprised to find the Plaza and little places in the park perfect for reading and relaxing.
Parque Maria Lousia
Perfect reading place. :)
Plaza de España. Courtsey of Google search, they can do what I can't when I don't have my photographer boyfriend with me.
  I love love love love love love love the atmosphere here in Spain.  Everyone and everything is so tranquil.  It’s normal here to just go for a walk and get lost in your thoughts or chat with your friends.  I love it.  No stress, no pressure, no agenda.  Just simply to enjoy life and appreciate what is around you.
