Shopping then to Seville 5/30/31 2022

My morning consisted of a fast slow-fast walk in search of homeopathic Mag Phos for my funky leg. Walking gave my legs the chance to work out some funk. I began on the straight and narrow streets surrounding the hotel, eventually hitting an incline, this slowed me down. Determination is a motivator.
