day 4

DAY 4
The day is only partially over but I doubt tonight I will have time for another update. Today we woke up ate our daily toast, cocoa, and crackers and headed to school. Started with our grammar class for two hours and laughed for at least half of it. We still have plenty of language barriers but a lot of the time it just makes it funny. For example today we were trying to explain how we drink coke in the states but she freaked out a bit and thought we meant coke like the drug haha. Then switched over to new professors for our culture classes. It was a bit more stressful than yesterday but that is why we are here right? School and Spanish and school and Spanish and trust me we are doing plenty of both. Then it was time for almuerzo with the family, the biggest meal of the day which consists of about three huge meals and then some. Today was our first siesta experience…but it only lasted for about twenty minutes and we were off to meet some of the girls. We are now sitting outside the law school building, gorgeous, on the grass using our computers and waiting to meet up with others to go find some boots-it is said to rain all next week. After that it will be dinner time and tomorrow is one of the girls birthdays so we will be going out to celebrate. Tomorrow is our day at burgos so hopefully we wont be out too late. The weather is still perfect here and I am meeting so many wonderful people. I absolutely love the culture!!! Our parents are starting to lose their patients with us as far as not understanding what they are saying but I think it will all come with time. I love you guys!!
