Hola, queridos! Que tal sus fines de semana? (Hello, dear ones! How were your weekends?)
I had a really fun weekend! As I said, we did paddle boats on Saturday afternoon. It was a gorgeous day, and we had so much fun going along the river and singing show tunes. Afterwards, we hung out on the shore with the guys playing futbol and talking. It was really nice!
Later that evening, we went to the Plaza Mayor to ride in un globo (a hot air balloon). Although we just went straight up about 30 feet and stayed for maybe two minutes, it was a really neat experience! Plus it was perfect for a college student´s budget....gratis (free)!
The next FACYL event we went to was Sunday night, and was not quite so gratis but equally interesting. After church, we headed over to a really nice theatre on the complete other side of the city for a French ballet company called Octopus. The only word I can really use to describe it is...French. There were basically 8 dancers who, when dressed at all, wore all black and did weird, artsy dances to uber sexual poetry and very modern ¨music¨. Although it was possibly the weirdest thing I ever saw in my entire life, I´m glad I went just because it was such a unique experience. Where in America is it ok for the dancers to just be straight up naked and screaming sexual poetry en frances (in French)? Jaja.
Today, we were trying to go to a break dancing show, but our class ran overtime. It was probably cancelled anyways due to lluvia (rain). We´re still trying to see a circus tonight, but it also may be cancelled. Either way, we also have plans to go to our favorite bar, El Javi, to drink wine and play card games. Nice chill evening!
Getting very excited about our excursion to Andalucia.... :)
Besitos,
Caitrin
