Cititurs and pretty horses- Day 7?

It itches. I have SOO many mosquito bites. This is horrible. Well, we all do really. Everyone leaves their windows open and thus we get tons of mosquitos in the house. Typically when I´m taking my siesta. But 1. I figured out how to use my noisy fan yesterday so I won´t open my ventanas any more and 2. I haven´t been siestaing much this week.
This will be short, because I have my first horseback riding lessons in the Cierras really soon. (Yes that was strategic. You are in fact intended to be jealous.) Anyway, to fill in from yesterday, short version: the Central de Cordoba is BEAUTIFUL. well, not all of it. But we def saw really pretty places and there are tons of pedestrian streets to walk with pretty trees and lots of shopping (woohoo book stores!! Danielle Steel in Spanish!). Riding the buses is not all that difficult afterall. And fiestas on a Tuesday night are not uncommon. I was just getting some rest yesterday when Julia came in and woke me up at hmm about 9:30. We left by 10 to go to Jorgelina (sister´s) party in el Central, at one of her friend´s apartment. It was fun, good food aside from all the mayonaise in it, cerveza, family, etc. But I was soo tired!! We left there around 1:45 and I got to bed at 2:15 to wake up at 7 so that I could have time to get up, shower, eat, and leave for class by 8. Yep. Not much to speak of from today yet, only that I finally bought a cell phone and it should be activated by tonight (hooray celulares!) I´m loopy. My Spanish has been horrible today, and I really would love a nap. It´s also very hot and I´ve walked the 45 to and from school three times already today. Ok time to go ride horses :) Hasta luego!

ps- la negra (the cat) has not returned. i´m afraid i scared it off for life.
pps- i love latin american exchange rates. i´ve been converting everything as i buy it. (a large meal with chicken, salad, and vegetables, and bread, and a bottle of water is 7 pesos... that´s less than $2.50 in the US.
