Exámenes de ingreso


Sabado- 16 de Junio.
Día 2. “Exámenes de ingreso”
                Our day started later than it will most days.. 8:30 today. We had breakfast and then headed off to take our entrance exams at Universidad Internacional. We had both a speaking and a written test to decide what class we will be placed in when we return for class on Monday morning at the bright and early hour of 8 a.m. :P After a year of no school till 9:30 this is going to be interesting for Kenzie and I. After our exams we got a tour of the school. It is beautiful! It feels like we are in the middle of the jungle! Today was raining all day, which is not normal for Cuernavaca, but because of the hurricane nearby we are getting a lot of rain- so it really felt like a rain forest! There are small pools all over campus! It is very cool to look over and see a pool outside your classroom window! (Pictures to Come) When we returned home from school we found our room was put back together and found that Mama had left us a bowl of candy!
                After school we went on a walking tour of downtown Cuernavaca, it was beautiful and there was so much history! There were vendors everywhere and the arts and crafts were very fun to look at. We visited the Cathedral of Cuernavaca and the Plaza. We even got a taste of street vendor food with Churros! Delicious! Tonight it has continued to rain and we are sitting inside watching Sex in the City with our host family. Very interesting with all the Spanish subtitles.
