Sevilla! Sevilla! Sevilla!

Hey everyone!! feels kinda funny to be sitting here bloggin. But i want to be able to fill you in on whats going on here in Espana and share some photos too. It has really been a crazy week and a half with so much going on. and so much fun. Im living in a barrio called Nervion. It's not too far from the center of sevilla, about a five minute bus ride. My family here is great and its mi madre maria jose, padre manuel, y hermano manuel jr. we have two little dogs tula and chica and Manuel has about 50 pajaros which he takes care of. Just yesterday a little chick hatched.

I've been to flamenco shows, sampled many different tapas from the endless selection of bars everywhere (literally on every corner), toasted some wine, Cruzcampo cervezas, gone to discotecas until 5 in the mornin, visited the third largest cathedral in the world "Catedral" and it was absolutely breathtaking the size and amount of detail all of which took over a hundred years to build (and i stood next to the tomb of christopher columbus), been to a futbol game between Sevilla FC and Barcelona (look up "himno de sevilla fc" on you tube its a great song), visited Real Alcazar palace which is absolutely beautiful with sprawling gardens and a labyrinth, and o ya i forgot im takin classes too. Im just about finished with the intensive spanish session which ends this week and the regular classes will start up next week. im gonna get goin. im going to a little bar down the street with live music tonight and this weekend im taking a trip to granada. so stay tuned haha
