We’re only a couple of blocks from the Monument to the Revolution (see previous post about the Monument) and a couple of days ago Don and I walked over to watch all the school kids, skateboarders and tourists getting wet!

So in the late afternoon when we wanted to take a quick break from studying Spanish, Don suggested we walk over to the Monument where there’s usually a lot of activity going on.

During the World Cup there was a large astro turf soccer field installed at the lower end that was always in use by anyone for pick up games of futbol (soccer).

This is the view of the dome (cupola) as seen from our room at the Casa.

When we were at the top of the dome on the observation deck a couple of weeks ago, we looked and looked to find our Casa but no luck!

We knew it was down there somewhere but we simply couldn’t pick it out from all the other buildings.

But someday when we go back up we’ll know where to look!
