We just recently visited Granada. Thanks for helping me remember some of the great things we saw and did. You write well.

Thanks for the correction! History and dates have never been my strong suit – I have to lean on others for that. But if you want me to solve complicated math problems, I’m your lady.

You’re a bit scratchy on your American history. You say that the Moorish surrender was signed in 1492 and years later, in the same room, Columbus got his contract to sail west. As every child knows, Columbus sailed in the Santa Maria in… 1492, the SAME year as the surrender!

Thanks for reading, Selina! We are having SUCH a great time. How did you like Sevilla? Did you find it easy to understand the type of Spanish people speak here? It sounds SO different to me! I still remember a few of the phrases you taught me: “Auxilio, me estoy ahogando en el baño”, “Soy una piña”, and the much much more useful phrase, “Gracias por la cena de anoche. estuvo muy rico!” I can’t believe I still remember those.

Ha – how were the churros Mom? I bet they turned out not quite as greasy as the ones we had here. I keep thinking there has to be SOME sort of Spanish dessert that will knock my socks off, but I haven’t found it yet. I’ll keep trying! Love you!
