What a weekend!!
Friday night was our first night out in Spain! Although we went home crazily early for Spaniards ( we went home at 2am!) it was a really nice night. We met up with a Spanish girl called Carri who´s really nice and spent the evening chatting in Spanish. First we went for tapas and then to what they call a "pub" which is what we´d call a bar and then to this place called Tomate where there was live music from a gypsy band called Canalito who are apparently very famous on youtube. They were good. The measures in the pubs though are a bit crazy. If you ask for a vodka and lemonade, you get a tall glass filled 3/4s full of vodka and a small dash of lemonade. I won´t be ordering too many of those!!
Saturday was nice as we, me and the other assistants, ventured out to a town nearby called Ubeda as there was a Feria going on. The Feria was great and we couldnt have asked for better weather. There were lots of rides, food, drink and lots of the women were wearing the traditional dress which was great to see. I have lots of pictures so Ill put them up when I can. Ubeda itself is a realy nice place,we went for a walk around the town and its full of old buildings and little narrow streets which lead here, there and everywhere. There´s also a small seating area where you have an amazing view of the mountains. I think I´ll definately be going back there!
Sundays are boring over here in Spain, there´s not much to do as everything is closed. The only two things that are open are the church and the cinema. So yesterday, we all went to the cinema which was nice as I understood most of it!!
Speaking Spanish all the time is getting easier, which is great!
Until the next update x
