Lo siento para la falta de escribiendo en los pasados días, pero no hay mucho que ocurrió – excepto tuve mi primera quemadura, jaja. Tuvo un metido semestre presentación y examen esta semana, así necesité tiempo a estudiar.
Sorry for the lack of posts in the past days, but not much has happened – except I had my first sun burn, haha. I had my mid term presentation and a mid term exam this week, so I needed time to study.
Esta semana tuve algunas solas aventuras, porque hubiera sentido más seguro y hubiera aprendido las calles mejores. En Martez, fui a la playa con Ariana, y mientras ella tomaba el sol, anduve por la playa y descubrí una isla pequeña. Ha sido muy tranquila, y me gusta el lugar. Naturalmente, tomé fotos, jaja.
This week I had a few solo adventures, because I had felt safer and I had learned the better roads. On Tuesday, I went to the beach with Ariana, and while she sun tanned, I walked to the beach and discovered a little island thing. It was very calm and quiet, and I liked the place. Naturally, I took some photos, haha.

En miércoles, decidí ir y buscar para algunas Geocachés a cerca de mi escuela. Desafortunado, hay solo dos cachés a cerca de la escuela, pero los están más o menos una milla separada, así andaba mucho este día. Pero, ambos cachés fueron a lo largo de la playa, así el camino fue precioso. Aquí, pude mi bicho viajo en uno de estés cachés.
On Wednesday, I decided to go and look for some Geocaches close to my school. Unfortunately, there were only two caches close to the school, but they were about a mile apart and so I walked a lot that day. However, both caches were along the beach, and so it was a gorgeous walk. It was here in one of the caches that I put the travel bug that I´ve had with me from a cache in Indiana.
En la tarde de miércoles, fui con ISA a la Alcazaba – como el Castillo de Gibralforo, excepto es el palacio del montaña. Como todos de los moros ruines, hay muchas detallas y vistos bonitos.
In the afternoon on Wednesday, I went with ISA to la Alcazaba – like the Castillo de Gibralforo, except it´s the palace part of the mountain. Like all of the old moor ruins, there were many details and great views.

Cassie and I enjoying the Alcazaba 😉
One of the windows in the Alcazaba. In the carved tiles that are shaped like rectangles, there are itty bitty carvings in Arabic which say “Allah”. So ornate!
The stone floors were made this way to “massage” their feet – the way the stones were placed would make it more comfortable to walk on. So neat!
Water flows through old Arab palaces because in the desert, water is a very pleasing noise. Therefore, the rich would pay for the sound of water to go all through their palace as a way to “relax”.
Finalmente, este jueves fui y veía todas de las tiendas a cerca de mi escuela. Hay muchas tiendas a cerca de mi escuela, descubrí – ¡aún un grande mercado con muchas tiendas pequeñas! Fue muy guay. Pero, en la tarde, solo fui a la playa con Jordan y estudiamos para nuestro examen en la mañana. Después de este viajo, tuve mi primera quemadura.
Finally, this Thursday I went and saw all of the stores close to my school. There were many stores close by, I discovered – even a huge market with all these little shops! It was quite cool. Although, in the afternoon, I only went to the beach with Jordan and we studied for our exam in the morning. After this little trip, I had my first sun burn.
En la mañana, ¡iré con ISA a Ronda! Estoy muy emocionado – he querido ir a Ronda por un largo tiempo. También, en domingo, iré con algunos amigos a Nerja – una ciudad no más que 45 minutos desde Málaga. Ambas ciudades están muy bonita, así tomaré muchas fotos bonitas y los pondré en el blog domingo o lunes.
In the morning, I will go with ISA to Ronda! I´m very excited – I have wanted to go to Ronda for a long time. Also, on Sunday, I will go with some friends to Nerja – a city no more than 45 minutes from Malaga. Both cities are stunning, so I will take many pictures and put them on the blog either Sunday or Monday.
Hasta luego,
Kenna
