Back to School

We had a few days off from school. Thursday and Friday were holidays. In Alcala where the school is located is the home of Miguel de Cervantes the author of Don Quixote. It is widely recognized as the first modern novel and is the second most translated book in the world (the Bible is the first). Anyway, Thursday was the celebration of Cervantes christening so the entire town was converted into 1500's Spain. There were booths with vendors with historic costumes and everything.

So today classes were back in session and boy did they hit us hard with the homework. Time to go back to work. My next assignment is to "Escribe que haces un dia normal". Please forgive me for not putting the stresses over the letters but my keyboard is having issues I need to resolve. Enjoy the pictures.
