And here we are, admiring the view from the Giralda, and taking in another bit of mosque that got away - El Patio de Los Naranjos.Actually it sounds a bit prosaic in English, meaning as it does, Court of the Orange Trees. However it's a good moment to mention Los Naranjos, another hallmark of Sevilla.
There are orange trees planted everywhere for a bit of shade. The oranges are green at the moment. They will be ripe in December.
Obviously they're something of a shrine for marmalade nuts like me. Dear old Cooper's Oxford Bung Full Of Sevilla Orange Chunks Marmalade is one of the few choses anglais that I do rather pine for in deepest Fa.
The pic is the first of several by Claire in this sequence on Sevilla.
Marvellous picture. Make your own Seville marmalade! I do. Look in the market in January for Seville oranges.
