Today after class we just took things a little slower. I took a nap during la siesta, laid out and tanned for a bit. This evening we had an event where we met up with students of the University of Alcala who are learning English. We spoke with them in Spanish, then they spoke to us in English. It's getting to the point where I understand most everything I hear, probably like 75 or 80% and I can usually like extrapolate the rest. The thing that I'm still working on is my speaking, but tomorrow I've decided to institute "No Ingles Miercoles," (No English Wednesday), to see if I can go a whole day without speaking English. I'll probably fail miserably but hey I'm gonna give it a shot! Here is a picture of the soup that I loved so much yesterday.
Looks delicious! I think I have found the recipe for this, called "Cocido Madrileno." (excuse the lack of tilde over the "n") We are going to try it & will be thinking of you & all your adventures!! Love you Brie! :)
