So...as the title of this entry may clue you in...we went to a monastery called Sacromonte today...and Sara wore the wrong shoes...and it was raining...now I have very wet feet. :) I should have worn my new boots that I bought yesterday. We have noticed that almost all the Spanish women wear great boots almost everyday, especially lately since it has been raining almost all week. We found a lot of great stores that I am excited to explore more later, and I eventually found a great pair of boots.
Anyway, even with wet shoes, it was a great climb, and I will definitely do it again on a not so rainy and foggy day. It has a beautiful view of the mountains and the roads go through a very unique part of the city. The walk was also fun because I got to chat with a lot of the other students in my program. Everyone is really nice, and I'm really enjoying getting to know these new people.
At Sacromonte, we got a great tour of many interesting rooms, however, once again it was in Spanish, so I didn't get as much out of it as I wanted to. Hopefully soon I will be able to comprehend faster.
The walk down the mountain went much faster than the walk up, which was a relief. After we returned to school, I ate my bocadillo, and we will soon have another meeting with Veronica. We are not sure what we will do tonight, but we are excited to experience some of the nightlife of Granada, as Spain is famous for their fun, late nights. We also are not sure what we will do tomorrow, since we have the whole day free. We will probably try to find some of the main sights of Granada that we have not seen yet. There is so much to see in this city!
'note to self'... love it!! haha
