Seville – Buying Biscuits from Nuns

[This is one of a series of posts about a group trip in 2018, which was rather designed for a specific audience at the time. However, I’ve reposted it to fix the broken image links and to ensure that the trip is preserved for posterity….]

Sarah, who has been leading us around the city, has done an excellent job and she also suggested that we buy things from nuns. Gordon, who is very precise in what he wants to buy from nuns, was excited at this proposal.

Sarah makes the purchase. Andrew at this point tried to take a very sneaky photo of the nun, and he was told off. Since he looked disappointed, I took a photo for him. Sarah asked the permission of the nun and no doubt has a beautiful photo. It was rather a pleasant little place and there are numerous of these operations throughout Spain, although the number is apparently decreasing.

Most importantly, the quality of the cookies was excellent, and I accidentally had three.
