Lisbon's lights.

 One night when it actually wasn't raining, we went on a tour of the Christmas lights in Lisbon. Kind of like back in the day at home when we went in our cars and drove to see the neighborhoods of lights. 

Well, it was kind of like that.

Azulejos.

I love Portugal. 

For many reasons in fact, however a main one is their use of tile. It's everywhere and all gorgeous. 

Makes you just stand and stare at buildings that otherwise I wouldn't give a second glance. 

Go and admire some tile. It's worth a trip, or two.

Burritos.

Refugee donkeys.

Last week we went to a donkey refugee camp, very exciting for all. Which was proven by thirty giddy seventh and eighth grade students. They were so excited for each new donkey, until the very last one (there were eighty-one donkeys.)

our turn.Some of my bilingual math students, they're pretty cool.
