half day!

so today one of my teachers had to go to the doctor or something so we only had our first 2 hours of class! I guess we could have gotten a substitute, but in spain they like to make things relaxing=) On my walk home I decided to take a new route and explore some places that I havent seen yet. I really like being by myself sometimes. It is very relaxing. Im happy that I went this new way becasue I found a really cute plaza. It had fresh fruit markets outside, bakeries, a pretty ountain in the middle, restaurants, and kids playing everywhere. When I was walking through i saw a puppy that looked JUST like bella!! It made me sad=( so I stopped to watch it. This dog was barking like crazy (just like bella) and chasing all the birds. It even made that stupid sneeze noise that bella makes. After this I found a cool shop with spanish jewlery. Then I was back in the plaza that i live in: Plaza de la Trinidad. During class today we discussed certain topics from newspapers and it made me think that I should buy a few different news papers from Granada. Not only to read, but also to use in my classroom one day. I bought 'El Pais' and 'Granada Hoy'. Im going to read them on my free time to learn new vocab words. In a few hours my friends and I are going on a tour of Sacromonte. I dont know too much about it, but its a seperate neighborhood that homes a bunch of the gypies in granada. It also has really cool caves. Im excited to see it. Ill post pictures soon to show you what it really is tho!
