Bideluze


















(Bideluze)

As per the request from my father, I will speak about my spanish classes today. I arrived at school around 9:25 and entered my first class with Fede. Remember Fede? If not, refer to a few posts below. Anyway, each day we go over something different. Tuesday it was Preterito v. Imperfecto, Wednesday it was el Futuro, and today was el Condicional. I have learned all of these in school but somehow being in the country and the way that they teach these topics, it is much easier for me to understand and really grasp the uses. For example, I have been able to use the perfect tenses in daily conversation without hesitation. "Yo he visto una chica bonita". In the second hour, Paqui went over Ser v. Estar. These are probably a few of the harder verbs to differentiate and so we will probably study it more. After class my friends and I went to a restaurant that Joimo (a friend from France) had gone to with his family and said it was the best. So, we all went there and had some of the best burgers I have ever had. My burger had cheese, bacon, and a fried egg on it....man was it good! He also ordered me a "Mosta" I think it was called. I asked the lady what was in it and she said it was basically "zumo de uvas con un limon and algo mas" "Grape juice with a lemon and some more stuff." It was very very good. Afterwards we of course, went to the beach. We laid out, played football, and swam in the ocean. Another good day. We ate out tonight at a pizzeria, that was okay. The Italians and I both said that it didn't compare to the pizza in Italy! Haha, like I am such an expert! Another good day in San Sebastian. Enough of a description of my classes DAD!?

Perfect update on the classes and your day, Dylan!! I am living vicariously through your blog! It sounds fantastic. Another great day. Sounds like you are making some great friends and I think I hear future requests for trips to France, Italy, etc in your future. Better work on learning the food operations of some of these places and opening a spot in Dallas as, "Mama and Papa es broke-o! How is that for Spanish??? Love you, Dad
