Fall

There have been a few days that really felt like fall here in Spain. Something about the smells and the wind, along with the right temperature that's just warm enough to wear a sweater instead of a jacket.

Even if the weather outside is relatively nice and warms up by midday, the temp inside the apartment is still coooooold. The stone floors just suck up all the coldness and my feet are almost never warm. I have a space heater in my room which sits under the table, so the only way I can warm up is to sit at the table. Not too terrible, but then I feel a little antisocial working on my computer a lot. So I venture out to the salón/living room to watch tv with my host mother every once in a while.

I really miss the leaves changing colors back at home. Here they just die green and fall off. Some turn a little brown. Although most of the trees still have nearly all their leaves yet. However, on our class trip southeast to Granada we went through the mountains and all the aspens are turning yellow about now. Really pretty.
