Today was our final day of classes which was really sad because we had to say goodbye to Andres and Romeo. They still taught one last clas though which was how to use superlatives such as when you want to say someone is the most beautiful or more intelligent than. It was a useful final lesson and helped clear up some of the little issues we had especially how a major mistake that everyone makes is saying muy mejor which sounds right but translates to very better and make no sense in either language. In culture class Romeo taught us about more modern day Peru and specifically the terrorism that occurred during the 1980s and the early 90s. This was really interesting to me because I had heard of the Shining Path in our book a lot but this is the first we actually got to go in detail about what they stood for and why the war started. After class we took pictures with both our teachers before we had to say goodbye and take a big class picture outside.
Then we headed to our last day at UNIFE we had a small closing ceremony there before we got to take another dance class with the girls. After the dance class we got to play sports for a little before we had to head home. I had a lot of fun playing volleyball with the girls again. One girl named Gracia was really good and she was showing us all her skills. Unfortunately the fun did have to come to an end because we had to get ready for our goodbye dinner at Rosa Nautica.
The dinner was a great way to end a wonderful month in Lima.
