Something-of-the-tower is as much translation as I can get for the town's name, Alhaurin de la Torre. It's such a cute town! I walked around the other day with the family dog, Yogi, and took some pictures of the streets and plazas....
The Torre! In the middle of town on the main street, I suppose this is official tower.

| This is the street where I was staying temporarily. (In a house, not on the street of course.) |
 |
| One of the many little courtyards, or plazas, in town, surrounded by apartments |
 |
| Fun shop I passed by...but didn't get to stop in because I had the dog with me. I'll go back, if I can find it again... |
 |
| I took this picture because I love the pedestrian alleys in town, and how they're made of that red tile and stone designs. Very cool. |
 |
| On nearly every building there is a tile design...I may go around one day and take pics of all the different patterns! |
 |
| Yogi was ready to go home. |

On a side note, the family I will be working with arrived in Spain today! I'm looking forward to getting to know the girls, and having a fun school year. Tomorrow we may be going to get churros and coffee (my sombra doble), and of course hot chocolate to dip the churros in...
Those pictures are absolutely gorgeous! I love how there's just a tower in the middle of the city square.
