Toledo and A Final Meal with the Buonomos

Toledo is beaauuuutttiiiffulll!!

 So, Doctora and Señor Doctora have left and Spain is now sad as can be :(. I had such a fun week with them! I loved showing them around the neighborhood where my school is located and  having them over for tapas at my homestay. I especially liked meeting them at the Prado where I had my art class this week. I was thrilled they could hear the explanation provided by my professor. I guess now is a good time to say thanks Señor Doctora for putting up with all of the Spanish. I must say it had to be frustrating not being able to understand my señora, professor, or many other people this week. And if you guys read this, thanks so so so so much for dinner on Saturday night with my friends. They all loved you and were so grateful! Thanks for such a great week! ¡Regresad en la primavera!

You may be wondering why I included this man in the photo--he followed our group around most of the day I'm convinced he was in love with our tour guide ;)

As for Toledo...well I'm sure you can see how absolutely beautiful the city is. The professor that I have for my Prado class was my group's guide for the trip and she is so informative and adorable. I was so grateful to have her. Walking around the cathedral was breathtaking and the views were amazing. We also lucked out by having fantastic weather. As I mentioned in the caption under the picture with the random man with the camera. Well...when we were in the cathedral, he asked our professor if he (and I think his wife...?) could follow us around and listen to her explanations, yep she's that good. At one point we were sitting on the pews listening to her and he sat right next to her in the first pew, because supposedly he was a bit hard of hearing (I think he just had a thing for my professor). Anyway, whatya know? We walk over to see the view of Toledo, and there he is again. Oh these Spanish adventures.

Me and Toledo perfect together
