Life as a vampire makes it difficult to determine when one day ends and the other begins. I woke up at 2:00 and after some exercises, "breakfast," and a shower I spent a couple hours reading the additional recommended book for my Teoría del Estado class.
At 7:00 I went over to Plaza del Toros for tapas with Blake. We met up with our friends, Athena, Erika, and Yessenia in the plaza to talk about tentative future trips as we had traveled with one another before and wanted to do another trip. The girls had brought their laptops and we used the free wi-fi in the plaza to look at ticket prices. No set trips yet, but we all agreed that we wanted to go to Ireland for a weekend and Greece for a longer break as Athena speaks Greek and she has family there as well. The only difficult thing when planning trips is to factor in the additional time and cost of getting from Granada to Madrid or another large city. The Granada airport is small and has limited flights with limited carriers.
From Plaza del Toros, I walked to Plaza Einstein in the centro where I met my apartment mate Antonio. We walked to a bar called "La Tertulia," (translates to "social gathering") where Antonio's friend was playing guitar for a flamenco show. The bar drew an artsy crowd, and we sat down on small wooden chairs facing the stage. There were two guitarists and one female singer. The music was great. The two guitars and the singer's voice created a beautiful harmony that filled the small room. After the show we talked to the musicians and then walked back home by 11:30.
