In Asturian: "Spring Party" more or less, haha. Becky, Jonnie and I went to Mieres (a nearby town) for a little spring festival of sorts, which didn't actually start until 1am mind you... needless to say, I'm exhausted today. Actually I had just finished rushing to get my Tourism project turned in and off we went to the festival I finally got a chance to try some traditional Asturian Cider and it was quite delicious. Becky asked me "do you like folk music?" Well, I told her I didn't know because I imagined that it would be different here.. and sure enough, it really is different than what I was expecting, although I should have guessed I suppose. By folk music here, they really mean mostly celtic. Very interesting.
Becky, Myself, and one of Becky's cousins that lives in Mieres that we met up with while over there.
The entertainment!
I took a short video clip of the band to give people an idea of what it sounded like, but I'm not sure how to post videos here... I'll try to figure it out later.
Today we did some shopping... I actually found a long sleeved shirt at a reasonable price, FINALLY! No skin cancer for me! yay! I also bought another really pretty (albeit a bit more feminine than I'm used to haha) shirt but it is SO comfortable... and it was 50% off. I'm not into this expensive high fashion stuff.
Well just wanted to give you a taste of what I've been up to, but now it is time to EAT!
