Día Quatro

Hi there. Today was a very busy day. We started off the day by going to class and we went over a lot of grammar in the first class, then we had  the conversation class, and later the culture class. It was very informative. After that, Sophia and I went to our host families house and took a siesta and drank lots of water because it was very hot outside. After relaxing with our family at our house after a great lunch, we met the group in the center of town under the clock in the Plaza Mayor.

After a quick walk we arrived at the Ursuline Convent. It was great to see all the history of the Ursulines and to see the nuns. It was a very special and sacred experience. Later we went to another church which was very interesting because it was apart of the UNESCO program and had a lot of heritage. Later we went to one last convent which was very pretty. The convent sold great cookies and I plan on going back for more. After that Sophia and I went back to change and go to dinner. After that we got ice cream to end the day which was great. Overall it was a very busy, but very informative day full of adventure and I cannot wait for the rest!
