(Insert Clever Title)

Hello Blog Readers!
We woke up late this morning. We were 30 minutes late to class. huzzah!
So there some things that we wanted to mention on our other posts, but they just happened to slip our minds.
1) KEVIN!
So, we have a groupmate named Kevin. He tends to get left behind, kind of like Kevin from Home Alone. When we were in Avila, our group walked to the bus station. We were there for about 45 minutes. When we walked back to the information building, suddenly, Kevin appeared! He didn't realize that we had walked away or which direction we went. So now, whenever we go somewhere as a group, we always double check "¿Esta Kevin?" Once, while taking a tour of Salamanca, we saw him and our professor walking the wrong direction. When we called them over she said "¡Por que estoy con Kevin!" Hilarious.
2) Showers
Our shower is a lie. In order to save hot water, which is expensive, we were told by our host mom to bathe as follows: 
-Turn shower on to let water heat up to 38 degrees C.
-Take handheld shower head and rinse body. Turn off water.
-Lather with soap.
-Turn shower back on and rinse off.
It's more annoying than it seems because you are standing in the cold. So no more typical hot showers. This makes Kendra very unhappy.
3)Food!
Our host mom is a very good cook. Yesterday we had tomate sopa con pan tostada and pollo y papas fritas. Also we have albaricoques every day. SO GOOD! There was also this potato soup mush thing that we dipped Spanish pork rinds into. We also always have bead with every meal. It is a type of baggette. This makes Kendra happy! They always serve Michelle too much food. They always want her to eat more.
4) While we are having fun, we miss you all very much.
I miss your faces! (Kendra) We are having the hardest time trying to download pictures with this internet.

Hasta Luego
