Tuesday was yet again another relaxing day. After learning about Nazca (mysterious images in Peru) and expressing ideas using the conditional tense, we all went to the beach. This is my group: Gian Marco (Italy), Matteo (Italy), Lucia (Italy), Laura (France), Tanguy (France), Wesley (France), Steve (USA), Henri (France), and two other guys from France whom I didn't know. It looks like the Americans were outnumbered...For this reason, spanish was once again the only common language, a really great way to practice. After playing soccer on the beach, this time it was 2 Americans and 2 Italians vs. 4 French (Team USA/Italia won), we all went back home. We later went out because it was one of our friend's last night. We were in a bar and an American song came on. Naive, by The Kooks. All of a sudden the French guys start singing it, same with the Italians! They all knew the song, even though it was all in english. It was really fun and exciting to sing along with them, even though they probably had no idea what was being said. They don't really speak any english! Music - bringing people together?

We might have different languages, skin colors, religions and beliefs, but like i always say, music is something that we all can relate to.

Is it always someone's last night in San Sebastian? Just remember when it's your last night "going away celebration" that you're getting pick up to go to the airport at 5:15 the next morning!
I believe this saying applies here " Music makes the world go round". Think about it....
Love,

Love that song. What a beautiful way to bond. Go Team USA/Italia! Enjoy your remaining days.

Sounds like it has not been just music bringing you all together---you have also bonded with vino de la casa, sangria, tequila and who knows what else!! Enjoy the final days in Paradise. Guess it will your final night celebration soon!! I can only imagine....
Be careful and have fun--
Love, Dad
Very Madonna of you!!
