Alicante

So I have been in Alicante for a week now. Classes are going really well and I am enjoying my time here. Everyday class gets out at 3, we ride the bus home for 40 minutes, eat lunch, and then go do something in the city until it gets dark and return home for dinner at 9:30. After lunch Jenny and I have been walking around town shopping or going to the beach. Here in Spain all of the people are extremely fashionable making shopping pretty interesting! While we wander around we stop once a day for either ice cream or tapas. The ice cream here is amazing! And there are so many different flavors...we never try to get the same one twice. We found a tapas place on our way home and have decided to visit often for a glass of wine and a new tapa every time. Tapas are hors d'oeuvre served with drinks in Spanish bars and restaurants; they are like mini appetizers.

I also have more pictures...these are from Alicante:

Here I am on the boardwalk!

This is the beach in Alicante...it is always crowded.

I´m not sure what this building is, but it is one of my favorites in Alicante!

This is the castle located in Alicante :)

And here Jenny and I are on top of the castle with a cannon--it was really cool!
