The Cicerone

If you go to Spain, don’t miss Seville. Everyone wanted to do a tour while we were working on Madrid and Barcelona, so we’ll have to go back.  Until we do, we picked up a few tips.

The don’t miss sights are the cathedral and the Alcazar. The cathedral is the world’s largest Gothic building and the Alcazar was built by the Moors in the tenth century and still used today. Third on the list is  the bullring.

Let’s face it. Tourism is the major industry in Italy now and the food is suffering. It takes some real investigating to find good old restaurants that offer traditional food at a fair price. Your instincts are probably right. Pizza is still good, cheap and available.

Even though restaurant prices seem to increase every year, wine is still reasonable. So, if you are having wine with your meals, prices will tend to even out. Limoncello ( lemon flavored drink) makes a great desert. I love Vinsanto with dessert. or in place of.
