They sure do keep you busy!

We had a fun day yesterday. They sure keep you busy, and the time passes quickly. We had breakfast from 9am to 10am, then began our "one on one" sessions with the Spaniards.

You do three 50 minute sessions, each one followed by a 10 minute break.

Except for some reason, when I checked the schedule to see who I was paired with, I saw that my third session was in the meeting room with three of the Spanish guys!

The entrance to the hotel property.

It's a really beautiful area.

During the one on one sessions, we are allowed to go walking. It was a beautiful day, so we spent each session walking!

Ruth got this shot of me with Adriana.

There is a path that takes you down to the river.

The Rio Tormes.

Me, at the entrance.

The hotel property.

There are some farms nearby.

Nice horses.

The cows.

We had finished our second session, when I had to see what was going on in the meeting room for our third session. It turns out I was going to be part of the evening entertainment! Along with three of the Spanish guys, we had to perform a skit. It was going to be quite funny, and we spent the hour of the third session practicing.

Then lunch at 2:00pm, followed by free time during which I had a nap and Ruth did some laptop time.

Then it was another two sessions of one on one at 5pm and 6pm, followed by a session with one of the program organizers, followed by entertainment hour at 8pm.

Ruth took a video for you... Turn up your volume...


All in good fun!

Then at 9:00pm, during which time we were presented with a special dessert because some of the people had learned that it was our 41st wedding anniversary yesterday!

Our anniversary dessert!

After dinner, we had pub quiz night in the bar. There were 18 of us who showed up, and we divided into three teams of six. The questions were pretty tough, but when you have six people on a team, you have a lot of varied knowledge. Ruth's team won!

Bedtime at around 11:30pm.
