Federico Garcia Lorca

En el Parque Garcia Lorca. Que bonita!

I recently started a bucket list for Spain. Things that I want/need to do over the next couple months. By the time that I leave here in three months, I want the list to be very extensive and complete. (: One of the easy things I put on there was to visit the house of Federico Garcia Lorca. Which is in the park very close to where I live here in Granada. Wednesday's are free to get into the small museum for a tour! Garcia Lorca was a playwright and poet, Granada is where his summer home was. 

Garcia Lorca's home

      He was arrested just before the Spanish Civil War an was assassinated in 1936. I don't know much about his life really (the tour was in spainsh!) but I did tell the tour guide that I would see her next wednesday! Why not right? It was only about a 20 minute tour and it was a cute little house. Maybe after I go through the tour a few times, I will completely understand what the guide says. (: Anyways, despite a couple minor weird occurances, the park is one of my favorite hang out spots, its so beautiful and peaceful, and I really am excited to go back next week for another free tour of the summer home of Garcia Lorca!

 "Then we can spend all summer together, as I must work hard and it is there, in my Huerta de San Vincente, where I can write my plays with the greatest serenity." -Federico Garcia Lorca

After the tour we walked around the park a little bit and came across a few kids from Michigan who had set up some rope (the kind you use for rock climbing) between two trees, and were walking on it like a tight rope! I tried it out, it was very difficult but really cool! Very hard to balance! In this picture to the left is a girl named Paige, I hope I run into her again sometime here in Granada!
