After a last-minute decision to stay an extra night in Sevilla, my friends and I were quite happy to be able to rent Maria's apartment and to receive a quick confirmation. The apartment was clean and spacious with enough rooms and beds to accommodate 4 surfers who had spent a week on the Atlantic coast of Portugal and wanted to see something of the south of Spain in the short time we had left. As the apartment was only a couple steps from the cultural center of town, it was easy getting around on foot to continue our city visits, and check out some of the many restaurants in the vicinity.
