Dec. 4: Today we went to a park that is right out side our Monastery. It is a huge park with tons of water falls and caves. There were falcons and ponds filled with fish. We were walking around there for a long time. Then we went on a tour the monastery,which was once a Muslim castle. After the reconquest in 1195, it was turned into a monastery. This is the first place they made chocolate in Europe after one of the monks came back with Cortez from the new world in 1535.  Later we did some relaxing and then homework. Now we are relaxing till bed.
