Day I Finally Lost Count

Hey so I didnt blog yesterday we just didnt have computer access. but I bought a train ticket to lisbon portugal for a 4 day weekend!! i cant wait i hear its super pretty. we decided on that place because i dont think i will ever get the chance to go there again so im taking advantage of it now. itll be June 8 to the 11th!!

alrighty i gotta tell you about the bull fight. it was intense. first they stab the bulls with little swords with pretty stuff on them then the matador comes out and waves the flag around to tire out the bleeding bull then they hand him the sword and he stabs the bull (sometimes through and through like you could see the sword poking out the other side) then if he is good he pulls his sword out of the bull...and finally the humane part. he gets a special sword and kills the bull by stabbing it right in the brain stem to severe it so it cant feel and it dies. then the horses come out and they drag the bull off.

glad i went but holy shit. enough said. (when I get my pics up its gonna be awesome)

so yeah that was all i did sunday, then monday was a mess after school lunch siesta, we all met at an internet cafe to plan our trips. well its hard to do on the internet so we ended up walking all over town to get to the train station and talk to them. which im really glad we did they guy saved us 200 euros which is like 300 bucks. But yep we just ate dinner and watched tv with Mari after that.

Now yesterday we actually went to the train station and bought tickets then walked around the city. We got churros and chocolate at the place luis reccommended, but idk they arent super sweet just a lot of fried dough. Not worth the calories. This morning has been good so far I think after class we will just go to lunch then we have our life in spain class with luis on wednesdays at five. thats the one where we meet with our speaking partners. hopefully i get a good one!!

  1. I think a bullfight would be a bit beyond me to watch. I got kind of pissy and sad when Brian shot a bird last Sunday.

    I am disturbed that you don't really like fried dough. Who doesn't like fried dough you freak!?!? :)
