El Peru

I enjoyed watching the movie about Peru. I enjoyed learning about Peru.  After hearing about this beautiful country, I can see myself walking through the busy streets and talking with the people.  I can also see myself swiming on the beach and eating the delicious food.  The capital city, Lima, is central to the political and economical balance of the country and I would love to spend a lot of time there to exerience this rich culture. 

I would like to visit the homes of the famous people of Peru.  I would like to visit Mario Vargas Llosa, Javier Perez de Cuellar Guerra, Mario Julia Mantella Garcia and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega.

Tapas & Antonti Gaudí -- Jim Ford

Although I knew tapas was a part of the Spanish culture, I didn’t know that it was such a significant part of the life of students. Any of us who have been to Isabella’s in Frederick will know that tapas refers to dishes of food served in small portions – fish, olives, meats, cheese, etc. According to what I learned this week, students in Spain often gather at a tapas bar to eat, drink and socialize. From what I understand, Isabella’s offers DJ music on Saturdays, so a visit there would give patrons a chance to experience both the tapas and the dancing that are such significant aspects of Spanish culture. The picture is of some tapas dishes from a restaurant in New Orleans.)


I was also lucky enough to travel to Spain about 12 years ago. Although I didn't speak the language at the time, I learned from our tour guide that the citizens of Spain take great pride in the artwork of fellow Spaniards. While in Barcelona, our group was able to see some of the artwork and architecture of Antoni Gaudí. His style was unusual, but extremely creative. Of all the things we saw, I thought none was more impressive than the unfinished "La Sagrada Família" cathedral. The construction of the cathedral is funded solely by public donations, so it has been an ongoing project since 1883. Although it is still unfinished, it is a functional space (and quite beautiful) on the inside. To see this example of Spanish pride and creativity, visit the cathedral's site: http://www.sagradafamilia.cat/
