Please Let This Be a Normal Field Trip? With The Frizz? NO WAY!

We went to this adorable little town called Setenil.  It’s another of the ‘white towns’  and it is beautiful.  The entire town is built right into the side of a cliff, so the insides of some of the buildings are still half cave!  You also have to routinely walk under an overhang that covers the road.  It was amazing, and it felt midway between walking around a town and cave exploring.  Ok, maybe it was a little  closer to walking around a town, but still. 

Best of all, it was DURING CLASS TIME.  One whole day of town exploring for class credit.  Beautiful.

We’ve also gone on two field trips with my culture class.  One was to get tapas…you know, hanging out, eating food, chilling with the teacher, not too shabby for a way to spend class.  The other was to a history museum,  I only caught about half of what was going on, but it was really interesting,  we learned all about prehistoria and cave paintings. I love field trips.

On Friday, in class, we also got to play this really cool Spanish game that’s a cross between Cranium and Trivial Pursuit.   It was a blast, and let me just say that Taboo in Spanish is WAY harder/funnier than in English.  There’s a whole new level of words you can’t use…because you don’t know how to say them…

Also,  things I’ve learned this week.  My host brother speaks PERFECT English.  Like, whoah.  I don’t know why we haven’t been talking and being best friends yet, but it’s totally going to happen.  We are going to be like Lucy and Ethel, Bert and Ernie, Peanut Butter and Jelly, serious best friend stuff.  Now I just have to figure out how to tell him…
