Time,
I'm losing my mind I swear because it was March just days ago and now I'm in my last month in Spain.
Oh jeez. my time is ending... and its so very sad.
Sorry I haven't posted in so long...nothing terribly huge has happened but I have been having a wonderful time here. We went as a group from BG to the north East of Spain. A part called Cantabria. It was so very pretty.
This is just one of the pictures I took while we were on the bus. It was so green I wanted to get out and just stay there forever. Obviously, that's not what I did but I thought about it...and I had dreams about it....
While there we stayed in this incredible old hotel that was a noble's house at one time. It was located in this tiny little town where there was like no one but us and the town's people. I loved it.
We went to the beach the next day and ran around like little children. Putting our feet in the water even though it was absolutely freezing.
Aren't my toes beautiful?
You have no idea how hard it is to hold your feet still in cold water until you try to take a picture of it.
Here's a picture of the tiny town where we stayed from the balcony of my hotel room...the town is called Santillana del Mar, but it's not saintly, there's no ocean and it's not flat....
These are the beautiful shells that were scattered all over the beach...
This weekend there was a bunch of stuff to do here in Alcala for a sort of celebration called La Noche en Blanco. I participated in a flashmob in the town center and danced the macarena with a bunch of random people...it was a ton of fun. Obviously, because I was dancing, I don't have pictures of it but I'm going to get some from my friends so that I can show you guys what it was like.
The night before, it was a friend's birthday so we went to the gay district of Madrid and didn't get home until 7 am...it was soooooooo much fun and so great not to be getting hit on by drunk men.
Now, I should be doing homework, so I'm going to get that done and I'll try to write again next weekend after a bullfight and my solo trip to Galicia in the northwest of Spain.
Love and best wishes!
