El Domingo

Today I woke up around 12:30, not too bad given how late I stayed up. Didn't really do much until after lunch, when I met up with Daniel from Intercambios, as well as Meghan and Gurbaksh. We walked all over Segovia, it was pretty cool. Meghan and Gurbaksh ditched after a little bit, so Daniel and I walked through the valley around the edge of Segovia. It was really fun, we talked about amusement parks, precipitation differences, and even politics! We ended up at the aquaduct and chatted for a bit before he had to leave for a fiesta in a nearby village. I felt so undereducated when we started on politics though, cuz he knew all about what's going on in America, as well as Spain and the rest of Europe! Maybe I'll be inspired to read more BBC or something. Afterwards, came back pretty much just to check mass times and find a new church, then dashed off to mass. I went to San Miguel, and it was sooooo pretty. I would've taken pictures but I think they were having adoration as part of their novena after mass and I would've felt rude. They had an organ playing and singing and it was all really pretty. The priest was really hard to understand though, despite the decent sound system, because all his words just flew together. It was a good experience though, I enjoyed San Miguel. Pretty much have just been resting since then, after all the walking I did. Hopefully going to bed soon, because excursion tomorrow!!!
