More scenes from a great 12 days in Sevilla... helping with a big WOW Week ("week of welcoming") to start off the new semester!
hanging out for coffee, ice cream and a bit of shopping with Leti (short for Leticia; do you like my new Palestine scarf?)
Saturday lunch with Abraham, his friend Narjis, and his mom Angelica...
.
she cooked two very typical spanish fish dishes including sardines with potatoes (left)
"Merienda" (light supper/ snack around 6 p.m.)... and afterwards playing card games in my old apartment (Inma, Johnny, me, Hendrik, and Abraham pictured here)
Lots of bus rides to get around town
at our park afternoon, a group of medical school students kept inadvertently kicking their soccer ball in our direction... so finally Lauren went over to meet them, and met the whole bunch! (she's front left, beside the birthday girl Rosa)
Inga passing out our WOW flyers with gummy bears, here outside the Rectorado (one of several main campuses connected with the Univ. of Sevilla, where you can take classes for liberal arts, languages, geography, art history, etc.). We passed out about 1100 of these!
English Club-- we had 2 simultaneous groups meeting on the lawn this day... Manuel is a computer science prof, and Annie in the back speaks great English!
one of our semester start parties-- i was so excited that Inma's mom, Paloma, came as well as her brother Paco (Johnny, Paloma, Paco, Loyda, me, Inma). Inma is my good friend who visited in Germany this summer!
Rafa, Hendrik, Arias, Abraham & Roberto... most of whom study computer science. We are so blessed to have Hendrik and his wife Maggie who joined our Connexxion staff, as of this fall!
