Yesterday was the students first day of classes in Ciudad Real! Students were introduced to Don Quijote, defined the meaning of linguistics, and became more familiar with how to speak in 'vosotros' in Spain. They were eager to learn more and participate in class!
Later in the evening, students took a tour of Ciudad Real to learn more about the history of the city and the various sites of interest. We were able to enter a church to learn about how an earthquake in Lisbon affected the columns of the church and how Fernando was buried under smooth rock in the capilla.
We ended the evening with a group dinner to celebrate three birthdays! Students enjoyed conversation with each other and their families before eating some cake!
This morning before classes, students were able to participate in some physical activity before it got hot. Some students decided to play basketball, while others played a friendly game of soccer.
More to come on Friday from our excursion to Campo de Criptana and Toledo!
