09-07-07FlamencoYLaPunta

Today was yet another fun day of class. Our teacher, Anais, keeps us going at a slow pace but we learn fantastically since it’s a fun atmosphere and we’re all engaged and trying earnestly to get better. We’ve gone through some important topics, reviewing each (ser vs. estar, past perfect, preterit, imperfect, their differences). Also, we get a good dose daily of words to know in Spain!

That night we went to a Flamenco show in a plaza and it was absolutely packed. Dancers were good, but not as good as I would see the next night. That night we went out to La Punta which is more or less a strip of dock that consists of many many many discotecas (clubs). We danced and chatted, met some Gaditanos, and then headed home. Sadly on the way home (at 5:30) Josh, Erin and I saw something quite sad. A cat was dying on the side of street. It was bleeding out of the mouth. There was not much we could do being new in the city and, on top of not knowing where any vets were, the fact that Gaditanos do not generally like cats.
