Today, Sarah and I explored a bit as we went for a run. We ran alongside the river and then up the mountains. It was very stress relieving and so beautiful! My favorite prarie path at home is nothing compared to the runs here! Yesterday, we went to the Albaycin neighborhood which was an Arab neighborhood. We took a bus there because it was so high up. As soon as we got out of the bus, everyone was so impressed by the beautiful view of the mountains. Our guide, Loli told us to stop taking pictures and wait till we get up a little higher. I couldn't believe what I was actually seeing. We walked up a little higher and saw a view of the entire city. We could see the mountains, the sunset, beautiful clouds (my favorite!), the Alhambra (famous castle in Granada) and the whole city. It was absolutely breath-taking! Then we went shopping a bit in the evening because starting yesterday were the "rebajas" or sales. They go throughout the rest of the month! Tonight, I'm booking a trip to Krakow, Poland and Prague for my winter break! I'll be going with a few close friends and I'm SO excited! We are going to try to go on a tour of Auschwitz which will be a once in a lifetime experience and so eye opening. Today, we're about to eat lunch and then go shopping a little and review for our placement exam which is tomorrow. I"m so excited to be starting classes! Adios!
