Once I finished lunch I headed out with Annie and Estuardo to explore the city. We headed to a garden down by the cathedral is. This is where the story "La Celestina" was written about.
The story tells of Calisto, who falls in love with Melibea, but following the schemes of Celestina their love has a tragic end after an accident in which Calisto falls off a ladder. Melibea then jumps out of a balcony ending her life. The story started by Calisto wondering in the garden of Melibea (hoping to talk to her) saying he "lost his falcon." I'm pretty sure all guys should try this pick up line once in their lives!
After that brief history lesson we headed to the residencia to meet up before dance class. Our group had a ton of fun... like normal. Today we had a dance off, well Robert and I versus Devon and Jon. I'm not sure who technically won... I vote us! On the way back we passed the other half of our API group (they have a later dance class). Erik just happened to be wearing the same shirt as Robert. Cute.
I then siesta-ed for 2 hours. It's more like a reallllly long nap. Siestas are only supposed to last for 20 minutes or so.
