Donde se removeron las piedras: Where they removed the rocks

Yeah...the title is a little strange...I was trying to use some reflexive verb and a new vocab word for all of you who want to learn some spanish...for those of you who dont--you probably ignored the title anyways...

If you were confused, I was referring to an old quarry that has since been turned into the 2nd park on our day-long-tour. It started raining again, as you can tell, and to be honest I wasn't all that thrilled with this one. I guess it is more a space to sit, relax, do nothing, or bring your own inspiration instead of being inspired. Maybe its open to interpretation.

There was, however, a statue representing Narcissus, who was said to have become obsessed with himself. The statue is suspended over the water as if the body was stuck observing its own beauty for eternity. Felipe finally showed up. We were beginning to worry. He brought the little one--so cute! You can tell how great a grandpa Prof. Vidal would be--he seems to get a kick out of Sebastian.
