Rock Spain

Man oh man, we missed another day! It was another late night, I'm afraid, so we figured we'd postpone it until today. Not to worry, you didn't miss a whole lot.

Mood lighting!

Yesterday was pretty nice, we didn't have class until 12:30, so we were nice and rested. After Language class, we went for lunch with Riva, then to Zumba and a quick swim to wrap up our day at Carlos III. We headed off to Malasanya to meet the gals at a cute little coffee shop filled with retro decor and tiny chintz armchairs. Very cute, but I also hit my shins on a lot of kitschy end tables.


Wowza, it just started pouring here!! The first real rain I've seen in Spain! Very exciting stuff, it is really coming down out there. Bummer for all those people sitting at terrazas down on the street.

Rainy day in Salamanca

Anyway, after the cafe yesterday, we came home and Skyped with Rachel until dinnertime (sorry for our abrupt log-off, Rach, can't let those burritos cool), and then we made our decision that led to yesterday's lack of blog: we went out on a Wednesday night despite our 9AM Thursday class.

It was a real blast, though, we headed back to Malasanya with Riva and the boys to explore a few bars. Luckily for our livers, everywhere was pretty expensive, so we had a nice little tromp through the throngs of abroad students who let's be real are the only ones able to go barhopping on a Wednesday night. But we had a lot of fun and got home by 2, so we still got five hours of sleep.

Today was another day at school, we had Latinamerican Lit in the morning and Spanish Culture in the afternoon, with gym and pool time in between. Hm. Well, if that's all I had to say, I guess it's for the best that I missed a day. If it stops raining, we might go out tonight. Tomorrow, Toledo!
