Kayaking!!!

Made it through school! Today was harder to stay awake than yesterday!

At lunch today I met their son. I think they told me that he was looking for work in Salamanca... I'm not quite fluent yet hahaha I am certainly not accustomed to the dos besos yet either -- I prefer a handshake any day.

I quickly researched Sam Walton for my small presentation tomorrow about him. We were split up into groups based on our home countries. The USA group contains 6 people so we were given a bigger assignment. We have to talk about 2 US companies, 2 Spanish companies and an influential business person from each country.

I took an hour siesta and then frantically grabbed my swimmers and headed to meet my group! Today we were able to either kayak or horseback ride. I've done both in the past... but since I figured it would be quite toasty out I opted for the kayak. My riding buddy was Annie! We had a fabulous time splashing the boys and pushing them into the bushes / trees. Bwahaha

After we finished up our ride, we hung out on the shore and waited for the horseback people to come. Such a nice day today! Not toooo incredibly hot like it has been, but yet hot enough to want to jump in a river!

About 9:30PM we headed home. You would think that this is really late, but dinner doesn't normally happen until 9:30 or 10 PM.... Definitely different than at home!

Dinner consisted of croquets, watermelon with something funny on top ... It may have been olive oil... Also, we had something funky. She said it was chicken, but it looked like a meat cinnamon roll. Tasted fine. It went down and stayed down. haha!

Not going out tonight. Some are trying to go out everynight this week. Also pretty normal for people around here. I'm not quite ready for that yet!
