We continue to have fantastic weather here in Cadiz...not too hot, but very sunny. We've taken advantage by exploring new beaches. Yesterday we went to the Playa Cortadura, which is located in New Cadiz (about a 10 minute bus ride from our residence). The waves were a bit larger, so some of us tried body-surfing. At one point Ben went for a walk with some students and got a tattoo.
Korke, our Salsa instructor, returned this afternoon for our second round of lessons. He and his partner, Clara, raised the bar this time as the boys and girls paired off and danced to new choreographed moves. Since we boys were at a numerical disadvantage, we had to dance twice as much while the girls resting were able to have a laugh at our expense. Every guy, however, gave it his best to mimic the magic feet of our instructor. The ladies, as seen in the photo, really got into the Salsa spirit, too.
Switching dancing gears, we went to see our last Flamenco performance of the trip tonight as well. This group was somewhat more contemporary than what we had previously seen, mixing in a flute and saxophone with the traditional sounds. Were it not for the crowded conditions of the concert, I think the students would have enjoyed the performance more.
Also, tonight's activity joined our group with the Cadiz Homestay 2 group, who will be here in Cadiz as well during our final week. I think the students enjoyed meeting some new people and sharing their stories from the trip so far. It's hard to believe we'll be heading to Madrid in a week!
Ben's tattoo is fake, by the way, and should come off in a few days. Check out the video if you can!!
