pictures...finally

Hello all
I have been neglecting this as of late and I'm sorry for that. But I have a good reason..I have been spending my time downloading pictures from my camera and then uploading them to a yahoo account. So you'll be able to view some of the things that I have seen..pretty similar to Eric as we have been to a lot of the same places but there are a few different ones..

At least I hope this works!!

Today, Eric and I went to Linares, where Jose (who visited Lethbridge last year) lives. We had an excellent home cooked meal (paella) and it was fantastic. Jose and his sister showed us around Linares, a few museums, a church, a bull ring (so cool - empty but still cool..) and museum dedicated to Andres Segovia, a huge guitarist back in the day. I had never heard of him but he was from Linares and he had pictures with some pretty important people (the pope, a few kings, president Carter)..so I guess he was a pretty big deal.

Other than that, we met the university president on Friday. It was a big affair with tv and newspaper pictures so we're waiting to find ourselves in one of the minor headlines. It was a cute little affair. Also, I think the nightlife has finally caught up with me since I have caught a cold/really bad sore throat. I'm hurting a lot and should probably not go out but it is Conrad's birthday so I think I will make an exception. Also, it has been pretty cold as of late and it actually snowed last night..the guys here at the res were loving it outside this morning...but it wasn't fun last night, walking around in the snow at 5am and almost getting locked out..luckily Shane was still up talking to his girlfriend, and after a few penny throws to his window, he let me in.

So, I'm off. Take care all and I hope you enjoy the pictures.
