My roomates here are 2 english girls who studied abroad here last year so not only do i get to have some girl time, but they have also been showing us some local haunts...we went to a flamenco club last night. it was an absolute dive but awesome bc it was a local spot. adalusia is known as the birthplace of tapa crawling so we have been doing a bit of that. last night i had this tapa which consisted of tomato and mozzerella covered in a sweet pesto sauce. sooooo good
today we went to a beautiful palace which was a spanish and muslim concoction as well. there are beautiful gardens, mom that you would love. i have decided that i would like to live in a palace. not sure how im going to go about it but thats waht i want!
it is extremely hot right now..in the 100s and we are dyinggggg. its so hot that we stay inside from 1 to 5 and take naps or read or something. but i have gotten a nice tan. even justin is getting some color. so u know its intense when a black kid is getting tan.
we leave for granada tomorrow and our hostel does not have internet so i will not be going on for a few days until we get to valencia. granada has a world reknown palace that we are visiting tomorrow night. it should be beautiful.
we are havign a great time but miss everyone very much. thank you for your emails and comments!

Buzz you're a world traveler!!
Buzz!!! I didn't know you were traveling around Spain! Ahhh it sounds like you are having so much fun. I went to Barcelona when I was abroad and it was absolutely crazy, I don't know if it's one of your stops along the way but if so you HAVE HAVE HAVE to go to Park Guell and to the Gaudi house (i definitely spelled that wrong) Anyways I miss you and we def. should meet up when you get back. I'm actually going back over to Florence July 29th for 3 weeks and traveling but if you get home before that we def. should try to do lunch or a little C&L's!!! Miss you tons be safe and take lots of pics!!
PS...who is Justin, your new bf that I don't know about?!?!
LOVE YOU!!

Great hearing from you! Sounds like you are having a blast...the heat doesn't sound appealing, but it also sounds as if you've found a way to get around it (aka like the Spaniards do.....Siesta!). Don't think that Eaton Vance is gonna give you one of these nappy breaks though! :)
Plum is looking awesome...kitchen cabinets and other trim and cabinetry going in.....painters are spraying all the wood trim, and preparing for the two coats of inory white.it's gonna be beautiful! yesterday was a '10' up there with 84 and a slight breeze..hope there are more of those in August when we're there ourselves!
Keep us all posted...love hearing from you! Is Justin being 'good' and letting Mrs Mac as informed as you? Cariol and Gael H called said they were enjoying your travel blogs!
Love Ya lots...Take care of yourself.and Justin!
