Intensive Language Class - Check

So it's friday and i'm finally done with my intensive 2 week language course. Praise the Lord. School work should start to come at a more normal pace, and hopefully traveling will start to pick up.
Last week I took a tour of the Catedral (no i didnt spell it wrong it's spanish) and Giralda and it was incredible. It's the 3rd largest Cathedral in the world and i can definatley see why. Other than that i've been laying low. Canning, I tried churros con chocolate today for the first time and they were very good. I sat next to the river and devoured them! Thanks for the recommendation, wish i could send some to you!
The rest of the food i've been served has been... interesting. Eloisa, my senora, has proven to be a very traditional cook, i guess traditional is the right word. Lentil soup, some sort of black sausage that my only guess would be bull, and other things i have yet to learn their origins.
I bum around the city pretty much everyday and have learned my way pretty well. It's absolutely gorgeous, except when you catch a stray dog pooping in the middle of a crosswalk. Haha, perfect placement, i almost waited around to watch someone step in it but i didn't have time. Regular classes start monday so we'll see how those fair, and yes they're still in spanish, unfortunately. I'll try and keep everyone updated!

    Glad you're better and am up to exploring the city. That catedral sounds BOMB.COM and I want to come see it, take any pictures or were you not allowed?
    You need to start posting some pics to your blog Zukes!

    Much love,
