Hiking

                                      There were spanish people like this on donkeys throughout the hike
You could drink fresh water out of this big spoon
The hike got sort of intense at this point, some of us decided to just take off our shoes and walk through the water with our bare feet because it was too hard to find rocks to step on to not get wet
Lot's of pigs like this running around. But then we saw one get killed...or a lamb, I couldn't really tell, just heard it scream. We making our way down the hill and then suddenly we all hear this horrible scream come from an animal, like it's throat had just been slit. And we're pretty sure that is exactly what happened because when I turned around to look, a man was holding a dead pig, with it's neck like hanging off. It was sort of far away so luckily we couldn't see much, but it happened for sure, and I sort of wanted to die. The hike was really pretty, but once we got to the top it started to rain and it got super windy, so that was sort of miserable. We ate our sandwiches our señoras packed us and made our way back down the hill. The guide we had was really cool and informative. We say lot's of cool plants, oregano and lavender and other scents that they use to make cologne here. It was just really nice to get out for the day because since it was raining in Seville I would have just hung out in bed normally. The hike was in the region of Huelva. I would love to go on another hike soon when it's sunny out.
