Sevilla -- una maravilla. Jane and I had a riot in Sevilla at the Expo. It was so fantastic! So many things to do, places to see, cultures to learn about. What a shame we had only one day. Bob and I will have to go back for at least 2 days. So many fantastic multi-media presentations, too. Now I'm thinking I should have tried to get a job there. It would have been an incredible six months! I'll have to be content to visit several times. We stayed out fairly late Wednesday night at a cafe near the cathedral -- my favorite spot in Sevilla. Then Thursday was Expo. We spent 12 hours at the pavilions, but only saw a few -- Australia, France, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Hungary, Spain, Valencia and Telecommunications. At night, we met Bek and partied at the Kangaroo Pub -- lot of fun. Jane slam-dancing with shopping bags in hand. On Friday we came to Málaga and spent the day along the beach front, meeting many of my friends I do have here. Never did find Yop, though. Last night, Jane was sick, so I didn't get to show her my town. Oh well. We had a pretty good time together, nonetheless. I hope she hooked up with her tour in Granada all right. I love visitors, but I hate to see them leave. That's hard. I need to get Bob to seriously think about moving here. I was supposed to se Mitchell yesterday, but couldn't get ahold of him. Frustrating delays again. I'll call him today. And María José. I need to get together with her, too. I really need Yop to move in here. I get so lonely by myself, even if it's not for long. I got the greatest letter from Dianne Sonnefeld. She told me I am a frolicking otter She is so fun. I love my friends.
