Well, for those of you who don't know, I joined a big gym kind of like the YMCA here in Montevideo. It boasts the only rock climbing wall in Uruguay, indoor soccer, racquetball courts, and (my personal favorite) fencing, among other things. Tonight we had our first lesson. It's a lot of fun because it gets us out of the house, which is sometimes hard to do on weekdays because of classes, studying, and abundant leftovers for dinner. The instructors are interested in practicing their English, so they were very helpful and we gave each other mini language lessons while they taugt us the first and "on gaurd" positions.
Other than just having a lot of fun feeling like French adventurers and praticing a little Spanish, we learned how to move forward and backward, and how to catch both tennis balls and rolled-up gloves out of thin air. Maybe next time they will actually let us hold a sword!
Sounds like fun! Glad you're having a good time and getting to practice some Spanish! We'll have to speak Spanish to each other when you get home! :) We miss you!
