Historical Tour of Salamanca

Woke up around 9 am... Pretty early for here. Met peole at the Plaza Mayor at 11 to go on a historical tour of Salamanca. We learned that the heads in the plaza are those of either royals, explorers or professors. Here we are waiting for the tour to start:

From 6-29

The tour included: Plaza Mayor, La casa de las conchas, the cathedral and we concluded down by the river. This is the ceiling of the cathedral in the new part. It is GORGEOUS. This part represents heaven.

After our tour we scattered home to eat lunch. . . Today it was potato salad, ham w/ gravy and melon. Good thing I dont hate potato salad. I still think I'm going to come home weighing less than when I started -- all this walking and funky foods. IDK.

I then met up with Elizabeth.. she lives relatively close to me. We did some window shopping. Word is there is a MASSIVE sale nation wide on July 1st. Hopefully it's as good as they say it is!

We then went to the residencia... our unofficial hangout.

A big group of us (pretty much everyone minus 2 peeps) went out for tapas... except we all just got drinks. Agua de grifa is my new favorite thing to order... you guessed it Tap Water!

Now it's time for dinner... I'm crossing my fingers!
