... so we walked along the river and watched a football game in the park, we walked through the city and saw a really cool street artist who had a 'singing and dancing' puppet. He was very funny so we watched him for ages. He had Elvis and Bing Crosby. We also went to the beach area which was really nice and we watched a girl's football game here. They are really talented ...

... cafe here in the city-- about 5 blocks from school. Keep in mind, it was about 90 degrees Fahrenheit. As I was walking down the sidewalk, I got hit on the head by a block of ice. Not an ice cube, but an odd, misshapen block of ice. And there was no explanation. All in all, it was weird. 5.This is the weirdest one-- and for those of you with a sensitive stomach, I suggest you stop reading here. Sammie and I were walking through ...

... the walls, and one of a bicycle graffiti´ed on the wall. These ¨bicycles¨ are everywhere, and I learned about them in class today. Apparently people paint them on the walls to commemorate one of the ¨disappeared,¨ as they call the 30,000 people who were taken and killed by the government about 30 years ago.

... big annual festival, the Festival Nacional de Doma y Folklore. The Saturday that I went was actually the second to last day of the 10 day festival. There were lots of food and drink booths set up, along with stalls at which to do some shopping. The main event was held in a big stadium. There were also lots of cars and tents around, as it seems many locals drive there and camp overnight. So after getting back from the Jesuit mission, we bought tickets for ...

... every light in the hostel remained on for the entire night and given that our room had lovely big french doors (ie lots of glass) it was like sleeping under a street light. The hostel also had free internet which was conveniently located outside our room - I was surprised to learn how many people like to use the internet after arriving home at some ungodly hour from a night out! After a very restless ...
