Hola amigos! Well almost two weeks down. I can't believe how fast it went. It seemed so slow the first week. Cinco semanas mas. My emotions are mixed...glad it's going fast because soon I will see my 'dark chocolate nougat' but bummed because I just love it here. Salamanca is definitely somewhere I could live.
Last night's tour of Salamanca was beautiful. I don't understand most of what they're telling us on the tour but the sights make up for it, as you can see by my photos I posted of last night. After the tour a few of us went out for drinks (bebidas) and tapas. As usual..Bien Comida! The food is so delicous here. I haven't had a thing I don't like yet but that's because I know what blood sausage looks like and I make sure I don't order it. Oh lord no! Gonna stay away from that in London and Ireland too. Anyway, we laughed so much last night. Your spirit can't be anything but happy here. If it isn't, something is terribly wrong with you..terribly. Just can't imagine being unhappy or negative here. If you come here that way, believe me, it will go away quickly. I posted a picture of my friend Feliz too. He still wants to be my novio. Love it.
Class was good today. Learning why and when to use El, La, Los and Las. My GOD..I thought English had alot of 'always do this BUT' stuff. Spanish has much0 mucho mucho exceptions..all you can do is laugh when los Profesores say 'Siempre .. pero". We all get a good laugh out of it.
Carmen made us a beautifully delicious comida of filet of some sort of white fish, sliced fresh tomatoes and this peas, tuna, cheese (I think tossed in mayo?) salad. What's weird is I HATE peas but these peas are good. Got to find out what they are and maybe get them at home. Us three ladies had some good giggles while eating. Carmen always saying 'Hablas Espanol NO Ingles'. I try but sometimes I don't know a certain word in Spanish so she says that to me pretty often. It's hilarious. We just laugh because I say back to her "Callate la boca"...man she laughs hard when I say that. We're having so much fun together here. It's like we've been roommates forever. We just all had a glass of vino blanco before we head out for the night. Barbara is going to Madrid with her class tomorrow and I am hanging in Salamanca to stroll around and 'comprar ropa' for myself. Need some long sleeves, warm clothes for Ireland. BRRRR! Oh and from what my cousin Ted tells me London isn't any warmer right now. Been raining alot there. I think I better buy some boots too.
I am headed to Plaza Mayor to meet friends at 20:20 under the clock. Bart left this afternoon but Rene doesn't leave until tomorrow morning. So it's another 'adios/hasta luego fiesta' tonight.
With that said...time for me to freshen up and hit the streets for that 20 min. walk to the Plaza.
Hasta luego amigos!
xoox
Paz y Amor
