Visit to Alcazar

Well on Thursdays we end class early and go on a visit. Today we went to Alcazar, or the palace. It was so extensive and so intricate. There are several courtyards and many rooms. The architecture has both Arab and Gothic influences, since Muslims occupied Spain for hundreds of years. All of the rooms have intricate walls of either tiles or molded plaster. The palace also contains very extensive gardens.
Unfortunately, I don't have a picture a day. I have zero pictures all week and about thirty from today. I want to try to spread them out though.
We are going to a carnival this Saturday and you need a costume. I went looking for a costume with a friend after class tonight.



Katherine and I are doing pretty well with our Spanish. We're talking to each other in pretty nice Spanglish. Each day I feel like I'm doing so well with speaking, but many other times I think that I have so much more to learn! It's a big language.
Today was a good day.
