Trip to Seville with a baby

With not too much preparation as usual... bought an a bit too old city guide the day before and off we go.... so first of all we didn't know there were direct flights from Copenhagen to Sevilla (with Air Berlin) so we travelled with SAS via Barcelona. We used a lift instead of the baby björn

and packed our stroller in an airshell bag (too bad these huge bags don't have little rolling wheels). I breastfed our boy at each take off and landing, seemed to work quite well.

Arrival to a nice little flat in the barrio of la Macarena - first buy on site : a sombrilla for the stroller, an indispensable

then a tour at the tourism office to have an idea of what tourist attractions were stroller-friendly which equals to say wheelchair-friendly -we found out it was ok to breastfeed in cafes – but I nonetheless used this technique to make it more private:

More about it on my "private breastfeeding post"

And here are the sites we could visit without any problem with the stroller:

• The Cathedral : there is a changing room for the baby

• The Alcazar though we could not visit all the rooms with the stroller

• Iglesia San Luis del Gran Poder – there is a restaurant on the plaza ”El Sardinero”

• Fine Arts Museum (sevillian painters)

• Mercado de Triana, there is a ramp just at the end of the "Elisabeth II" bridge

• We especially liked the atmosphere at the Plazoleta Bodega, C. San Juan de la Palma because there is a playing park for children and the restaurant was full of local families

• The alameda de Hercules is surrounded by cafes and a lively, family friendly atmosphere in the evenings (22:00)

• The cinema open air - noches de verano at the University of Sevilla

Our daily schedule was to visit in the morning from 10:00 to 13:00, eat at around 14:00 and if we were still in town at 15:00 take a taxi home as it starts to get really warm by that time. Then it was ”siesta time” and we were out again at 18:00 to enjoy the cool breeze before the sunset - some shops open until 21:00.
