Some of the group on top of Alcazar |
After that, some of us went to Valor (a Chocolate Place)--yes, I am Lorraine Cavanaugh's granddaughter (love you Grandma)--and had some churros with chocolate! We met Jesus, the owner, who is very good friends with one of my Spanish professors back at St. Ben's.
After the chocolateria, we went to the art exhibition of Christian (the guy who matches us with our host family and is also the brother of my Art and Culture prof, Pilar). It was so cool and fancy schmancy. Then, I came home and all my family members were getting ready to go out for the night! I had a tortilla espanola for dinner (eggs, potatos, and cheese all formed into a tortilla shape)..ahh it was delicious!
After that, we went to our favorite bar, Oso Blanco, to hang out with our favorite bartender, Jesus. We got to know the other group from the U.S. that is also studying here in Segovia!!
This morning I slept in, woke up and went to Dicano, a local cafe, to work on some homework..yes, I actually have to study while I am here. Came back and had lunch with my family! Now I am off to go explore some more! It has been nice and sunny here for the last three days, Minnesotans BE JEALOUS :)
Adios
View from the top of the castle! So beautiful |

THE TRIP TO THE CASTLE SOUNDS GREAT EXCEPT FOR THE STEPS TO HELL.
