Our First Day with Sun!!!

 We were super excited to see sun this morning so that we could get out of our house and walk around the city.  Following are some pictures of some of the highlights of our walk.


The Catholic church is in the background.   Notice the old brick road, and that we are on a hill
 (which makes us feel right at home).  

The Catholic church has a bell tower and it is close enough that we can hear the bells ringing each hour from our home.  We don't know yet how old the church is but we hope to find out. 


Again more hills which are plentiful in this village. 


Just around the corner from the church is the Bullfighting Ring.  
It is small but we do live in a small village.  We hope to eventually be a spectator here.

Up the street from the Bullfighting ring is the 2 story
Mercadona grocery store which our kids love.            
Can you guess why?

And coming down!!!

On the other side of town we found the largest park we have seen so far.

This is one super cool teeter totter.  The kids played on this for a long time.



This is the pool in our back yard.   This picture shows just about half of it.
