I awoke today to discover my sore throat is basically non-existent! I was able to sleep about eight hours last night, so I feel much better today and apparently I look better too…Will said that I looked really pale and tired yesterday. There’s really not that much to report from the other side of the ocean today, as I haven’t done much. I started reading 1500 page The Count of Monte Cristo, (in English…I’m not that daring to take on the Spanish version…yet). Will, Ansel (another auxiliar who teaches in nearby Alcázar de San Juan) and I are going to Ciudad Real tomorrow to apply for our NIEs. The only bus leaves at 6:45 in the morning and it’s a 15 minute walk to the bus station, so it’s going to be one early morning! The returning bus doesn’t leave until 5:00, so we’ll have all day to explore the (big!) city! I’m glad we have Tuesday off as well, because I’m sure we’ll be super tired tomorrow night!

Xoxo,

Court
