The first time I showered in Madre dos' house, I broke the shower head. Of course something like that would happen to me when I have only known this lady for 24 hours. If you know me, you will probably guess that I was freaking out about telling her what happened. I sat in pure agony in my room and waited for her guess to leave so I could brake the news to her. After rehearsing what I was going to say a thousand times in my head, I told her what had happened and to my pleasant surprise, she was not mad at all. She even had an extra one in the closet and said not to worry and gave me a hug.
Minus the shower fiasco, the whole program took a trip to the Alhambra earlier that day which was so cool. The views are breathtaking and the structure of the fort is very similar to El Moro in Puerto Rico. The group went on a 2 and a half hour tour of the fort with a guide. After we ate lunch, a ham and cheese sandwich with olive oil and a clementine, the directors took us to the military area and through some beautiful gardens.
Jenn and I tried to join the gym, but it turns out it closes at 4 on sundays so we couldn't. We've had bad luck signing up there. Here are some of the beautiful sites I saw at the Alhambra.
A pretty pathway
Great view of the old village
The fountain powered by natural forces, no pumps are involved
From the military stand point
So pretty
Megan, I am so enjoying reading about your adventures. I felt relief for you regarding the shower head incident, and I was so thrilled to see the pics from the Alhambra. What great memories I have from being there when visiting Kristen!
ReplyDeleteThe Alhambra was so beautiful! I definitely want to take my parents and Clayton there when they visit!
