All right. My phone's been sitting in rice all night. It's the moment of truth.
Please work.
That's not good. No.
No.
This morning, we are driving two hours from Tavira to Sevilla in Spain, which.
Is where my sister studied abroad for a whole summer. So she is looking forward to showing us around the city, and we're looking forward to seeing it.
And it's their anniversary.
Happy anniversary. Kayla and Barrett.
One whole year of marriage.
They're dealing with getting the key back to our Airbnb people. Kayla, tell us about Sevilla.
Sevilla is the best city in the entire world, and whenever people talk about it, they say Sevilla una maravilla, which means the marvelous Sevilla.
That's cute.
And we're going there now.
Let's go. You can get in, Barrett.
See ya. Happy anniversary.
Made it to Sevilla. And I'm so excited. First stop, lunch.
Somewhere down nowhere.
Kayla, are you excited that you can communicate in this country?
So excited. It's so great. Say something in Spanish. She's fluent.
No, just tell us where we're eating.
Mental.
People who are actually fluent are the ones that say they're not. So you know, she's legit. I.
We are going. We are eating at.
Yeah.
I think you should both try it at the same time.
This is the best thing I've eaten.
Since we got to Europe.
Wow.
The outside is, like, so crispy, and the inside is so mushy. It's so good.
Seafood mozzarella stick without a mozzarella. It's an actual mozzarella stick.
Chunk, if you can imagine. String cheese, but, like, really good string cheese.
Thank you.
Fried le raspberry sauce. That's what I got.
Raspberry sauce is an interesting dynamic to the cheese steak. Perfect.
Yeah.
We're just down in our restaurant, which means the fan stopped, which means we're all sweating. So we're going to try to get our coffee iced.
And they coffee could be tragic.
Lunch was muy delicioso.
Now we are going to find our Airbnb. It's supposed to be a pretty short walk from here. I would go back to that place and eat lunch tomorrow before we leave.
Loved that place, loved our waitress, and she loved Kayla. Sweet and Spanish.
Definitely one of the top two meals that we've had since arriving in here. The food was fantastic.
The croquetas were the best. Is that what they were called? Croquetas?
Sure. We may have found it. Does it have a number?
Can I press it?
Sure.
I need my sun hat.
Hola.
Be patient.
We haven't Loft in our new Airbnb.
We can go up there and have deep conversations about life.
What else?
Bedroom. Numero uno.
Bathroom.
Bedroom.
Oh, this one is fancy.
Look, broken bridge. We're going to get our car to move it to the new parking garage.
All right. It ends. Since we're here, Josh.
Good. Okay. I'm embarrassed by how long that parking job took.
Good work.
I am thankful to be parked, y'.
All Stressful. Kayla is about to take us out on the town.
Where are we going? First?
Great question. We're gonna see the city. We're gonna go to the cathedral. Maybe the pool arena.
Yeah.
Maybe see the river, get some ice cream. Definitely that. Not gelato.
Swishes. So we'll see where it takes us.
We think this is something important.
This is the fanciest hotel I've ever been in.
It was made by the tourism board in honor of the king of Spain in 1978.
Wow. Read it on sign.
Unfortunately, we're not staying there, but I wish we were.
Sevilla, where I studied. That was good school.
This is like, the coolest school I've ever seen.
Wow.
So I thought I was going to go to class with all the Spanish students and realized that I was in classes with all the American students in a small section of the school.
They quarantined you off.
And none of the Spanish students talked to us.
This is El Catero. They severe they giant cathedral in the.
Middle of the city, which is, I.
Believe it's the second largest in the world. Second choose cathedral in Rome.
Can we go in for free?
No mini skirts. Wow.
Kayla was just telling us that the stairs in the tower aren't actually stairs. They're ramps so that in the old days, they could walk their donkeys up to the top of the tower. I missed the purpose of why the donkeys needed to get to the top of the tower, but thought that was interesting.
For good measure. Gracias. Kara's enjoying using her tiny Spanish words.
How's it? Wow.
It is not like me trying to get white ice cream. I'm all about chocolate, but this is literally cream cheese. Just cream cheese with.
Fig. This is seriously one of the greatest ice creams that I've ever had.
Can't touch it to your lips.
Bueno.
Oh, I was doing it wrong.
He's a pro.
I keep that.
Nice.
Not quite a pro.
Your turn, Kayla.
Nate's going to drink the whole jug.
I can't swallow all boards of pen into my mouth.
You need some practice into the water park.
You drink and you wash Your face.
Exactly. Two in one. Is that how the locals do it?
This should be five stars. It was excellent.
I think that's where we are. According to this map.
We're at the oldest restaurant in Spain.
1670.
So this place is called San montaditos, which means 100 little sandwiches. So there's 100 options on here. And you put your number on this card and then you give it to them and they give you all your sandwiches. There's like €1 120 goes all the way up and they're sweet sandwiches, if you're into that.
Hello.
Mini sandwiches. I was dripping out.
Little chewy.
I love it.
Kayla was a fantastic tour guide. I don't know if she just got lucky, but the four places that we ate today were like four of the best things that we've had the entire time we've been in Europe.
She knew all the history of the church and school.
It's like having our own privacy tour guide.
It really was.
And it is past 9:30 and it is still light outside, which is crazy.
Just now getting dark.
All right, we're ending it here.
Good. Half day in Sevilla.
This morning we are driving two hours from Tavaria. Where are we? Tavira. This morning we're driving two hours from Tavira to. I have to think, like I said that weird.
Tavira.
What do you say?
This morning we are driving two hours from.
Tavira.
No.
All those Spanish classes in college paid off.
I liked sentences that started with Megusa because then I didn't have to conjugate the verb.
The world's largest door knocker.
Nope, not a door knocker. Just handle. Oh, my God. Gosh.
My neck is so sore from diving off that rock yesterday. I have about this much movement.
