Arriba!

Over the course of the last five months, I have taken up the study of Spanish. One of these days, I'd like to be able to read some of the giants of Spain in the original language.

How have I learned the little I have so far?

Yo estudio espaƱol en la Universidad de Duolingo.

Anyway, it's a bright sunny day here in Michigan after entirely too much rain. So I am going to share with you a popular Spanish toast:

¡Arriba, abajo, al centro, pa' dentro!

The explanation--including choreography--can be found here.

A happy July 18 to all. If it still is where you are. If not, then happy July 19.
