Malaga: Dia Dos

Que tal,

Just a quick update from Malaga. Last night, Carmen made us beef stew and potatoes, and it was really tasty. The four of us talked, in Espanol, for two hours. Carmen commented that my Spanish was much better today, and it sounded like I had learned a lot already. As I stated yesterday, I am keeping a notebook of new vocabulary I learn and questions for Carmon. This is definitely helping me improve. Also, I learned that Carmen does not like roller coasters!

We went to bed around 24:30, and I woke up at 10:30. It has been really nice to get two nights of solid sleep. I feel revitalized.

It is a little chilly today (64F), since there is no sun in the sky. Coincidentally, this is the first day I wore my sandals.

After classes today, I purchased a ham sandwich and gazpacho for lunch. I wanted to try gazpacho really badly, but I did not enjoy it as much as I thought it would. Perhaps I just got a bad bowl.

On Saturday, we are visiting Granada and El Alhambra. I am very excited. More information about this excursion will be coming soon.

Aside from the weekends, my day to day life will be pretty consistent. If you have questions about Malaga or anything about my trip, please e-mail me at jstoffl@gmail.com or post in the comments section below.

Hasta pronto!

Bubba! I am sure that you did not even know I was reading your blog, but it really is amazing. I was in Spain last summer and I am so jealous. I am also extremely happy that you get to have such a wonderful expereience. Thanks for all the stories. It is like I get to be there again myself (almost...). I hope that you love Granada, it is simply amazing!
