Cruising the Mediterranean
By Margaret Paine,
SEVILLE, SPAIN
An early start from the boat was
necessary to make the four-hour trip
by rail from Cadiz to Seville. It was
a crystalline day with golden sunshine
and the bluest of blue skies. We sped
through orange groves and past vine
yards and skirted olive orchards, on
through a fertile country suggestive
of the agricultural sections of Califor
nia. Ahead of us, terminating the rich
plain, were ranges of high rugged
mountains. Besides interest in Span
ish landscape, there was the coqmisr
attraction of our imitial ride im a En
ropean railway car with s s@oCes
gsion of compariments and the side
aisle.
It was after moon whez our tmin
reached Seville and the comsuming of
luncheon at the Hotel 4 Anglegerre
seemed an almost unbearable delay o
the travelers who were eager to make
the most of their very short time in
Seville, especially since their interest
had been augmented by a glimpse of
the Giralda, the high tower adjoining
the Cathedral, which occupies a com
manding position in the center of the
city. Uncovered victorias drawn by
well-groomed horses took us around
the city for the afternoon. Everything
about the city was picturesque and
lovely. Even the business section was
dotted with open squares filled with
green grass and trees. None of the
buildings were very tall and the fre.
quent patches of parking made the
prospect very pleasing. Out on the
edge of the city, there was, in the
process of being constructed, a semi
circle of very beautiful buildings
which were to be used for an indus
trial exposition the following year.
GGardens and pools had been laid out
in front of the buildings most effec
tively. After driving through a park
filled with hundreds of over-arching
trees of various kinds, we came upon
