Hi all! As I'm sure most of you heard, we have made it safely to Spain. After spending too long in airports, we arrived in Avila around 3pm on Sunday. We ate a late lunch and took a tour of the city. Then the students broke into groups and tried some of the tapas the restaurants we offering. Yesterday concluded a 3 day "Avila en tapas" festival, in which participating restaurants prepare some of their best tapas in hopes of being voted the winner. Unfortunately, it was a little rainy, and many of us were still tired from the trip over. Hopefully we all woke up more rested today.
This morning, the students divided into groups and went on a scavenger hunt throughout Avila. Part of the purpose of the scavenger hunt was to learn a little about Avila and Spanish culture in general. But they also had some important tasks to complete, such as making photocopies of their passports and buying phone cards. All of the groups did an excellent job.....they certainly were competitive!
Tomorrow morning we leave for our second city, Caceres. Here we will get more accustomed to Spanish culture (like the Spanish food), and will have the opportunity to travel to Merida and Trujillo, nearby Spanish towns. We'll post pictures as soon as we get the chance!!
