This is the dorm. It is a just a house in Camarma that the school rents.
This is our street. Every house is exactly the same.
This is our minivan, provided by the school. It's very "mini," as is everything here. All the cars here are stick shift, which means David will be doing all of the driving. It comes in handy that he drove professionally for 3 years before he started teaching. :)
These are our appliances. The skinny refrigerator, small oven and tiny microwave.
Everything is small here. This is a litre of 2% milk.
This is our washing machine, in the kitchen, of course. We tried it out today, after having to call someone to come show us how to use it. I mean, could you understand this...

Mathis loves watching the clothes swish around and around.
And this one is for Lisa. :) Most Spaniards do not have dryers, although our house does have one. It is unbelievably dry and hot here (think desert) so I took advantage of it to save energy. Believe it or not, these were hung out this evening in the shade and were completely dry within 2 hours.
