Spain, Unit A: Language Learning: Hola, Todos!

We arrived in Madrid, sleepy but excited, and quickly made our way north to the beautiful coastal town of Llanes in Asturias. After a bit of orientation, the clouds cleared and we were able to explore the town in small groups. One of the groups picked a great restaurant for our first true Spanish dinner! The students set up a ¨Menu¨ for us with many options. Two boys accidentally ordered ¨callos¨, or tripe, and wondered why the Spanish liked such fatty meat. They were very surprised to find out that it was cow stomach! Brave souls!

Today is beautiful, sunny, and perfect for the beach, frisbee, and a dip in the cool, clear-blue waves. We have a lot to see in the next few days here in Llanes, so adios for now. We´re off to meet some fishermen at a fish auction!

Abrazos muy fuertes de Espana,
Jeremy y Britt (Jota y Bea)
