“Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and
permanent, in the ideas of living.”

Dios mio

I really need to keep a blog if for no other reason than I am terrible at remembering. I can barely remember what we did yesterday, ay ay ay.
But we did not do much of anything [= I love my senora, she is such a sweet mom.

Today we got up early and went to Pablo de Olavide, it kinda reminds me of Marshall but it's crappier, I know that's hard to believe. We took a Spanish placement test, and it was pretty difficult, I'm anxious to see what I get on it.
We took a tour around the campus but it wasn't a very good tour, I know I will get lost and be late for my classes, its a given.

We also went to the cathedral here which is the biggest in the world if I am not mistaken. It was gorgeous, but then they all are. Cristobal Colon is buried there, exciting! And there is this whole chapel where sailors would go to pray before their voyages, we all know how much I love sailor things. There was also a thorn from Jesus' crown when he was crucified that almost made me cry.
We went up into the very top of the bell tower, and the view was amazing. It reminded me of the Empire State Building, just because you get the same sort of view of the city.
