Brownells in Spain: November 2007
http://brownells.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Chronicles of our adventures while living in Spain and other random commentary about Haiti, adoption, parenting, God, or the daily grind. Thursday, November 29, 2007. If you were at Eugene and my wedding, 8 and a half (gulp) years ago, you may remember my bridesman, Mario. If you weren't there, here's proof, my mom reading 1Corinthians 13 (remember that for later) and Mario to the right of her. Mario and the gang hauled us (me and my roommate, Annette) everywhere. We saw movies, listened to music, we...

Brownells in Spain: May 2008
http://brownells.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Chronicles of our adventures while living in Spain and other random commentary about Haiti, adoption, parenting, God, or the daily grind. Tuesday, May 27, 2008. I am not a single issue voter. My personal beliefs on moral issues generally don't have to match those of the candidate for whom I vote. More important to me are the things that effect everyone everywhere everyday. Things like education, international policy, healthcare.ah, healthcare. Do US-Americans feel they deserve healthcare anymore? People ...

Engel (and Brownell) Blog: Valencia Oranges
http://eng-ell.blogspot.com/2009/02/valencia-oranges.html
Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Monday, February 09, 2009. Last weekend, Rafa took us to his family's citrus grove in Algemia - outside Valencia. We picked oranges, tangerines, and grapefruit. Hey, where do you think Valencia oranges come from . Valencia, California or Valencia, Spain? After we picked as many oranges and grapefruit as our many hands (and bags and shoping carts) could carry, we flew a kite in a nearby soccer field. They tasted like rotten lemons. Then, Sara's student gave us fresh oranges from...

Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Saturday, August 30, 2008. You may think that this has nothing to do with Spain. Oh, but it does. In the United States, mosquitoes are a common enemy through which we ALL bond together and fight against . republicans, democrats, and intelligent-independent thinkers - rich, poor, and more poor - male, female, and other - brown, tan, pink, yellow and olive. Sometimes, the mosquitoes play tricks on us . buzz around our ears until we wake up and turn on the light and then they ...

Engel (and Brownell) Blog: December 2008
http://eng-ell.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Friday, December 26, 2008. After several late nights and a few missed excursions with the family, I finished writing evaluations for my students (in SPANISH). When I finished, I came up gasping for air . I had 2 weeks of vacation! Then, I got sick and I was in bed for 3 days. The last time I was in bed for more than 8 hours, it was because I was giving birth. We also made Christmas decorations and snowflakes (since there isn't any snow outside) and listened to Christmas music.

Engel (and Brownell) Blog: "Art"
http://eng-ell.blogspot.com/2009/02/art.html
Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Saturday, February 28, 2009. I literally lol (laughed out loud) and rotf (rolled on the floor). I thought I lmao (laughed my ass off) but I looked back and it was still there. Maybe I should have cried. Yana told me that they are practicing how to spray paint in her art class. I say "practicing" because Yana was the only one who was learning. She was the only one who had never spray painted before. Actually, a few of the kids in her class are. Feb 28, 2009, 10:46:00 PM.

Engel (and Brownell) Blog: Sevilla for New Years
http://eng-ell.blogspot.com/2009/01/sevilla-for-new-years.html
Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Monday, January 19, 2009. Sevilla for New Years. We celebrated the New Year in Sevilla. We stayed in a GREAT hostel that was beautiful and had a friendly climate (and FREE internet access). It was an especially great place to hang out when it was raining outside. For New Year's Eve, we went to the city square. There wasn't a countdown so we shouted our own countdown (about a minute late). Notice: Yana and Maria were too embarrassed to shout the countdown.

http://eng-ell.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Engel (and Brownell) Blog. Sunday, April 20, 2008. The Way of St. James . El Camino de Santiago. On Tuesday (April 22), I will begin the Camino de Santiago . a traditionally Catholic pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela where St. James is buried. Actually, there are many routes of the pilgrimage. I will be taking the French route. I will start at Roncesvalles (just inside Spain) and walk about 800 kilometers across northern Spain to Santiago. I love Spain and I love to see it close-up. Because I am here.
