Sierra Norte, somewhere over the rainbow

my pot of gold

After being without wheels for two months, our California need for speed kicked in and we rented a car. I was itching to explore the countryside outside of Sevilla and Teddy was itching to fulfill that manly urge, driving fast along curvy roads. We met both our needs by getting a sweet deal on a sporty little BMW.


FIRST stop, the woods, trees, nature, streams, and fields. It was exactly what we all needed. Sierra Norte, a national park about an hour and a half outside of Sevilla hit all the spots. We rambled along the Viaverde for nearly 2 glorious miles. The boys ran with sticks, I picked flowers and saw poems, and Teddy even went for a nice run in the rain. We spent hours enjoying our roles as the main protagonists in such a beautiful landscape.
