Beach, Beach, Beach!!

First, I will share some pictures of the beach yesterday and our walk around the city.





Today, Ryann and I went to the beach again this morning.  We went around 11 and got back to our house at 3 so we were there for a good four hours right during the sunniest and hottest time.  Ryann continuously comments on how I look like a Mexican, but then again I guess I continually comment on how she glows. HA!  We met up with some girls, Hanna and Amber, from our class and they spent a couple hours on the beach with us.  It got really hot at some points, almost where I couldn't bear it any longer but it was so beautiful and I love the sun so much that I couldn't just get up and leave.





On our 30 minute walk back to our apartment, I decided I would start keeping track of some things that I like and don't like about the culture of Spain as I walk around and start taking pictures of these things.  I already have a rather long list of things, but I believe that is will continually grow until I leave.

LIKE:
LA PLAYA!!
The slow paced way of life
The cool little shops
"Ice Cream"..more like sorbet
The weather, it never really storms here.  It's always sunny and beautiful.
The plants
The buildings
THE FOOD
Siestas!
Night life

DISLIKE:
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
How people don't move over to the side when they are walking
Being in a big city, or a city for that matter
Traffic
Crazy motorcyclists
Creepy old men that tell me I'm "Guapo" (good looking) gahhh!
Pigeons
Being away from my family and Nickolas
The loud noises right outside my window
5 minute showers
