| Cúpula del Milenio |
Today
Bailey and I were both struggling to stay awake in our classes.
Although we got a decent amount of sleep last night, our lack of
sleep from the night before must have carried over.
When
we got back for lunch, Mercedes' daughter and son-in-law were eating
lunch before us. They talked to us a little bit and were really
nice. For lunch we had a plate of garbanzo beans, potatoes, carrots,
and hard boiled eggs.
We
both have presentations in history tomorrow, so after our siestas we
went back to school and used the internet for four hours. My
presentation is about the wedding of Isabel, the oldest daughter of
the Spanish king and queen Ferdinand and Isabella (back in the
1400s).
Supper
consisted of sunny-side-up eggs, french fries, and watermelon
(strange combination, right?).
After
we watched the news, Bailey and I ran for two miles along the river.

Tuesday:
Today,
for our “presentations” in history, we got to do them from our
seats, so it was laid back and easy.
It
still hasn't rained once and it doesn't look like it will. The
temperature is perfect, we don't have and don't need air
conditioning.
Lunch:
pasta, bread, watermelon, and what we think was pork chops, but I'm
not sure if she ever said what they were called.

After
siesta and homework, we met the guys near the beach and walked north
along the river until the trail ended (the north edge of Valladolid),
then crossed the river to the west and checked out the Cúpula del Milenio, a big
building shaped like a soccer ball that lights up at night and hosts concerts and events. Outside was an awesome jungle
gym that didn't have any kids on it, so we climbed on it and hung
out. We also sat by a fountain on the river and went to El Campo
Grande to check out the peacocks again.
Supper:
bread, salad, apple, tortillas patatas
To
bed early!
