Lots to do...

Sorry about the delays between posts. It's been a very busy week. We had our long weekend, from Wednesday to Sunday. I went to Granada, Nerja, and Cordoba.

Segovia has been busy with the World Cup Games and festivals. The World Cup is fun here. For each Spain game, they stick a huge screen in the Plaza Mayor, which is right outside our school, and tons of people come to watch. It's a massive sea of red.

Thursday night was the night of San Juan. They had a big bonfire in the Plaza Mayor. Surprisingly, there was more people there than for the soccer game. The people write down 3 wishes for the next year or 3 bad things that happened to them in the last year (we heard both things). They hand the paper to the firefighters who throw them in the bonfire.

Every night, there are multiple concerts going on. There's something for everybody. And the concerts go on until about 2 in the morning. There's also food contests between the restaurants. It's been a lot of fun!

Sorry this has no pictures. I don't know when I'll be able to post next here in Spain. Home in 5 days!
