Magical

If I already wasn't already having a magical time on vacation, it only got better!

Sevilla is truly a magical city. Not only is it filled with ridiculously good looking people, but it really is the epitome of Spanish culture.

We arrived in Sevilla a little later than planned, so we had to make a reservation for the late 10pm Flamenco show. To kill time, E decided we should do the horse carriage ride through the city.Honestly I was hungry and wanted to get tapas but I remembered I brought fruit snacks in my purse! I thought he meant all 4 of us (his brother and cousin were with us) but he wanted it to be just us.

The sun was setting as our trusty caballo (horse) Lucero led us through the streets of Sevilla. As we entered the Plaza de Espana (and I finished my fruit snacks) he said he had more candy for me. He pulled out something wrapped in foil and said it was a Certs. I laughed, "why? Does my breath stink that bad?" The driver was pointing out points of interest so when I turned around he had a ring in his hand and asked, "Cecille, will you marry me?"

Of course I accepted! I didn't cry at first but a few minutes later as the ride went on, he was telling me that he feels God brought us together. I cried because I whole-heartedly agree -- call it God, call it shoes -- I know I believe in magic.
