Encore!

The siesta is actually 3 hours long, so i have time to update my blog before i go down for a nap. We just came back from la Caja Granada Memoria de Andalucia, which is a very modern museum dedicated to the history of Andalucia, the province that we're in:

The entrance (la entrada)

My roommate Tori

Alex, Gabby, y Oscar outside the museo


Our group on the patio inside the museo

The exhibits were these screens that had video options on them. You activate them like a kinect, with your body. You just point at something and it opens a video. I'm deficient or something cuz i always selected things i didn't want.

Speaking of deficient, we all went out for karaoke last night at Hannigan's. We love Hannigan's because they speak engligh there. What a coincidence...so do we! Katie and Kathy did a duet of the Backstreet Boys which i include for your viewing pleasure:



Of course that performance recieved a standing ovation and calls for an encore. Later on, Kathy obliged us and, accompanied by Gabby, gave us her rendition of "Like a Prayer". Ella es la nueva Madonna. Here's more of our noche por la ciudad:


 
Katie y Kathy, singing their little hearts out


Los Chicos! (L to R: Nick, Alex, Oscar, y Miguel)

An overview of Hannigans on a Thursday night. Not bad, eh?

I'm starting a specific section of the blog called "quote of the day". We keep a notebook of stupid and/or funny things that people say every day. The best of them will make their debut on the internet. So today's quote comes to us from Shanie, who told her madre de casa:
 "me gusta sus pantalones, es un mono!"

In theory, this means 'i like your pants, they're cute', but unfortunately theories are just theories. In reality, they word "mono" has two meanings: "mono" (adj.) means cute, but "el mono" (n.) means 'the monkey'. So what Shanie really said was:

"I like your pants. It's a monkey!"

Since it's la siesta, i'm gonna take a siesta now. Tonight we are going out for tapas, bebidas, and posiblemente un discoteca! If we do make it to the discoteca, there will surely be muchas noticias for you en la manana.

You know you love me
XOXO
Sara
