Ronda

Two weeks ago, a new girl moved into the house. Susie has the room next to Liz and I, and she hails from Ireland, but is a junior at Cornell. A basketball player, she's tall, and her leg was strapped into a brace when we first met her.

Anyhow, we went out that Thursday, Liz, Susie, and I, to a different Barrio of Sevilla. We were trying to find Carolyn and Shelby, but were having very little luck. They had no idea what the name of the bar they were in was called, or the name of the street. Not many people were out, so we started talking to some random guy on the street, asking him where the people were. His name was Luis. He was from France, but had lived in Sevilla for 7 years. He was studying computer science, like me, and had a big exam the next day. He offered to show us a bar, though, and then he decided to get a couple drinks with us. About a half hour later, we looked across the bar, and there were Shelby and Caroline, with some random guy who'd showed them to the same bar. They'd been there the whole time.

Here's a picture from a short visit our group took to los Reales Alcazares de Sevilla:

Two Fridays ago, we also went to Ronda, which is a lovely little city in a mountainous area.
