Meeting the Family

September 17, 2011
Today was the baptism of the new baby in the family so we all went to Jaca, a city 15 minutes away from Sabi, to go to the baptism in a  famous and gorgeous cathedral.  The baptism was cool, very short which I liked but it was the family that was the best part.  This is my host fathers side of the family and he has 7 siblings, all of which have their own families so we were like a small village.  There were so many new names and faces but it was all so great.  I think that I only heard one thing the whole day which wasn't sarcasm, a very fun and crazy family.  Before and after the baptism we went to 3 bars for beer and appetizers (a very common thing to do) and then we went for a huge lunch, all of us sitting at the same table.  It felt like the people at the other end of the table were most likely in France.  All in all it was a great day.  It was very cool for me to feel apart of such a big family, as mine is much smaller.
