detour...mini road trip!
las madres de Celina y Aimee walked the 3 of us to the place for our service. it's a solid 40 min from my house. they looked at our map Gene gave us but had absolutely no idea where we were going. so we ended up on a mini adventure to get to our destination. we walked thru some overgrown weeds, rocks, and cliffs so mini army men. Aimee and i both enjoyed it.
Celina's parents picked us up from the "service gone bad" which means they drove us home. it was quite a walk for me approx. 40 min or so but thats just about all the exercise i get so i'm glad it's naturally built into my schedule. the drive was def longer than the walk so i was wondering where on earth we were going. turns out, Celina's parents wanted to show us some country side and horreos (pronounced like oreo like the cookie...i hope i spelled that right...shack like building where you keep extra grains and stuff like that). but then we stopped and got out and took pictures by this beautiful place...old town. me encanta : ) we spoke lots of spanish and it was fun.everyone was really easy to understand and if we didn't know a word, they'd explain it to us. in the car, i had complimented Celina's mom on her english and she said she only knew like 2-3 words. LIES. she knows MUCH more so every time she spoke english she'd wink at me, i'd just laugh cuz she clearly knows more than only a few words. after our detour, they offered to take us out for cervesas and well of course we accepted! and cervesas means free tapas yummmm i love tortilla.
seriously, why are everyone else mothers so easy to understand compared to mine...
