We enjoyed a four-day weekend this past week starting December fourth. This holiday was called El Puente (the bridge). I didn't really understand why we had this holiday. One of my friends said it was the "Spanish Thanksgiving." During our holiday Oscar, Feli and I went to Comaruga and the Delta of the Ebro. Angel's mother is ill so he has gone to take care of her for a while in Avila.
Well we walked around Comaruga and relished the peace of the Mediterranean Sea. The family I live with owns an apartment in Comaruga. We have gone there three times now, and we usually spend a weekend there. After spending some time in Comaruga we went to meet some of Feli's family in the Delta of the Ebro. A delta is a landform of silt deposits at the mouth of a river. In this case the Ebro River goes into the Mediterranean Sea.
We met Feli's family, ate lunch and visited. Feli's family is very nice and is always happy to see me. I also enjoy visiting their family members although I do miss my own. There were a lot of marshlands in the Delta. These marshlands reminded me of the fields of Ohio. I enjoyed the scenery of the marshlands and the Mediterranean Sea: they were both relaxing.
This weekend I also saw two movies "Paranormal Activity" and "2012." Both movies were in Spanish and I understood pretty much everything! They were both entertaining movies, but I liked "Paranormal Activity" because it was more suspenseful. The other film, "2012", was also fun to watch.
The long weekend was a nice break. Christmas is coming soon. What an experience that will be...
I did not like Paranormal activity. I got really nauseas from all the movement. I did enjoy 2012 that was really action filled. Looks like you are getting to see some nice areas of Spain. Your so lucky to experience this. Have fun and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYa, Paranormal Activity made me a little dizzy too. You have to admit though the ending was awesome. I am seeing a lot of neat places here. In 2012 I am probably going to go to Africa.
