The last day of February. This semester is flying by!!

I was very productive today. I read 3 very long articles for my Contemporary Economic History paper. I was very proud of myself and relieved that I got it done. Now I know for sure what I am writing about and all I have to do is write it... It took me a few hours to read the articles. I started right after I ate breakfast. Then I went for a run. It was gorgeous outside. The temperature was very mild and the sun was shining! I went for a longer run than I planned just because I wanted to stay out in the beautiful weather longer. I always feel guilty staying inside when the weather is perfect!! I hope the weather stays like this from now on although I am pretty sure the majority of this coming week there is a chance of rain.

When I got back from my run I told Angela that we had to take a walk to Casco Viejo and grab a snack or drink at an outside cafe. We walked to Plaza de Castillo and sat outside of a bar. I just had a coffee because I knew if I started eating pintxos I would just want more to fill me up. I was going to have a big dinner which I did. The plaza was filled with families and all kinds of people. Also on the way there we stopped and sat at la ciudadela and watched a pickup game of soccer/futbol. Today was probably the most lively Sunday in Pamplona since I have been here. Everyone was definitely enjoying the turn in weather!

I am planning on going to a local bar to watch the USA vs Canada hockey game tonight. I have missed all the coverage since our tv doesn't work. So I am really excited to watch the gold medal game.

Vamos USA!
