Finalmente en Casa!

Hola chic@s!

I loved hearing your surprising or embarrassing situations! I guess we all know that you can't take anything or anyone for granted. 

I just got back from my 10 day fall break and boy am I glad to be here. I had a wonderful time! 

My favorite part of Barcelona was Park Guell. It was so gorgeous and covered in buildings designed by Gaudi!



Venice was crazy because there were absolutely NO cars. Everyone travels by boat.


 After I made my wish in the Trevi Fountain I got to see the a giant crowd of protesters at the Coliseum!




Overall it was a wonderful trip but I'm glad to be back in Alicante. One thing that I found surprising was that when I got back home I could tell my Spanish was rusty! I usually speak in Spanish all the time but after 10 days of English it took me a while to get back into the groove. Well I look forward to hearing your responses to my last blog post! Hasta luego!

    Dear Jordan,
    Barcelona looks beautiful! I want to learn about Gaudi and the other types of buildings he designed. I wish there was a way for people in Portland to travel by boat. What did you wish for in the Trevi Fountain? It sounds like you're having a lot of fun!

    Estimado Jordan,
    Barcelona se ve hermosa! Quiero aprender de Gaudí y de otros tipos de edificios que él diseñó. Me gustaría que hubiera una forma para que la gente de Portland pudieran viajar por barco. ¿Qué es lo que deseas en la Fontana de Trevi? Parece que tienes un montón de diversión!

    Dear Jordan,
    All the pictures looked gorgeous. I wish I could be there with you because it all looks so fun and beautiful. I think it would be fun to always travel by boat instead of cars. All the buildings that Gaudi designed looked so exquisite and intricate, I would love to see more pictures of his building. It sounds like you are having a lot of fun!

    Estimado Jordan,
    Todas las fotos se veía preciosa. Me gustaría poder estar allí con ustedes, ya que todo se ve tan divertido y bonito. Creo que sería divertido que viajar en barco siempre ny lugar de coches. Todos los edificios que Gaudí diseñó un aspecto tan exquisita y complicada, me gustaría ver más fotos de su edificio. Parece que usted tiene un montón de diversión!

    This sounds a lot like what I do. After i'm finished with english class, and i go to spanish class, i cannot stop speaking in english. It's like my brain can't switch launguages very fast because no matter how hard i try, i still speak in english. My spanish teacher gets very annoyed with me, but it's not my fault becasue i can't seem to stop speaking in spanish!(;
    I hope you enjoy the rest f your trip. I am very jelouse of you and how you get the chance to expierience such an amazing thing!

    That reminds me when me and my friend decided to talk Spanish during lunch. When lunch ended, i could not get out of Spanish mode! I almost spoke Spanish to my English teacher. All the places there sound amazing! It must take a lot of talent to steer those boats through those narrow canals.

    Eso me recuerda cuando yo y mi amigo se decidió a hablar español durante el almuerzo. Cuando terminó el almuerzo, que no podía salir del modo de español! Casi me hablaba español a mi profesor de Inglés. Todos los lugares de sonido increíble! Se debe tener mucho talento para dirigir los barcos a través de los estrechos canales.
