Tuesday, 12/23. Today is our day of 'play.' The Young's and a brother from church took two cars and took us to Segovia, which is about an hour from Madrid. Actually, our return trip took us two hours and fifteen minutes because when we got back into the city, we were in heavy traffic. It was the hours when people were getting off from work. Segovia is an old town full of history and it's a definitely a tourist site. We had really good weather today for sightseeing and had a lot of fun being 'tourists' for the first time since we got here. It was very tiring walking almost all day; but we got to see some of the Spanish history and taste Spanish food for lunch. We came back to the apt. about 9pm. The pastors were dropped off on the way home at the supermarket to get breakfast for tomorrow. With eight people in the same apt., food is gone fast.
Supper is being prepared right now even as I'm speaking to you. It looks like we're going to have dinner at 10pm again. That's common lifestyle in Spain. We'll definitely share more of this when we've returned to you.
Overall, today was very relaxing; and I'm sure everyone of us enjoyed the day.
