As it turned out, I actually went to three cities this weekend: Merida, Caceres and Trujillo. Offered by The Center for Cross-Cultural Study, the free trip included visits to a tremendous castle (not pictured at right), a medieval quarter, the birthplace of Francisco Pizarro (conquerer of Peru), a convent for nuns, Roman ruins and more.I feel like each trip gets better and better, though it's easy to say that with Morocco up next. This weekend, I got the chance to talk to people that I had barely seen since the first day in Spain, see some incredible sights, and learn a little bit about what the life of a nun is like. It's kind of random, but there's something new every day. And don't worry, photos are coming.

Hey Josh - looks like the advertising in the picture (asics, the tent) was the same one in the Plaza De Espana, in Sevilla. It's funny to see the out of place ad stuff in front of these incredible castles and plazas that were built hundreds of years ago. Glad you are grabbing up everything you can in 3 and 1/2 months, and finding old friends etc along the way. I guess all roads eventually lead to the US............
The places you've been and the places you've seen are amazing! I hope and know you will remember and cherish this time! Have Fun!
BTW, you are missing nothing at home! The Eagles suck!
Love,
DAD
