Our madre's name is Maria, and our Padre is Leute. (I'll get a picture with him soon!)
We flew on Lufthansa Airlines, and it was the most comfortable flight I have ever been on. We had leg room, fluffy pillows, real blankets, individual tvs with an awesome movie selection, and airplane food that wasn't all that terrible.
We arrived safely and are being submerged headfirst into the language, the city, and the people.
There is a quiet elegance here; the city holds 3000 years of history and culture. It brings you back to a time and place where everything is simple, streets are cobblestone and people take time to enjoy life.
There are little streets and parks everywhere, all around the most famous part of Segovia, the aqueduct. Stone arches as tall as buildings, held together by sheer force and physics, as old as Jesus, and still standing strong...it's incredible!
I am already finished with my first day of school and cannot WAIT for the adventure to unfold!
Hasta luego :)
