The GCW Tour, Spain & Morocco: Now I Get It

Americans are always struck by the hour at which Europeans generally eat dinner (and vice versa). We think they eat in the middle of the night, and they think we eat in the afternoon.

Now that I've been to Seville, I understand the European approach. In fact, I'm betting the 10:00 dinner hour started in a place like Sevilla and traveled to the rest of the continent, 'cause it only took me about one day here to embrace it. 

In short, it's just too damn hot to eat any earlier in the day. At 6:00, your body is too focused on sweating to want food. By 10:00 or 11:00, though, it's finally cooled down enough to make eating tolerable. So a 10:00 dinner hour makes perfect sense.

Not sure what the issue is in Great Britain, though.
