Yesterday we had the most DELICIOUS lunch ever. We went a little crazy with the sala (the new plant / almost weed we discovered we can eat), and made a sala feast. We made cous-cous with roasted vegetables, sala with potatoes, almonds, and raisins, salad, and a sala tortilla. Everything was amazing! It was such a feast.
After we finished working and napping, Ester, Lindsay and I went in to Huercal-Overa to explore the town and watch the soccer game (Spain v. Germany). Huercal-Overa is super super small and quiet. It looks like a photograph, partly because the buildings are completely picturesque but also because nobody is moving. We passed maybe 3 cars the entire time, and a lot of people were sitting out in chairs in the middle of the street. Many of the streets were too narrow for cars to pass through.
We went to the biblioteca first (obvi. Tell me I wouldn't.). It was great! There were so many cool books and magazines. I want to go back today if I get time so I can take some back to the farm to read.
After the library, we went to a bar to watch the game. We sat outside, and literally everyone in the town (all 5 of the residents) was outside crowded around the two television screens watching the game. There were at least 7 Spanish flags hanging from the building, and everyone was screaming and blowing horns and it was great!
