TONIGHT IS MY LAST NIGHT IN GRANADA. This is so weird…I really can’t believe how fast the time has gone here. Last night we had our cena de despedida (good bye dinner), and while it was really fun it was also really sad. Most of us just tried not to think too much about leaving, but it was kind of hard not to. Feelings aside, the food was excellent (and unlimited wine didn’t hurt either)! After the dinner we went to a bar, but mostly we just hung out in the street trying not to leave. Some people had to get on a bus at 5am this morning…let’s just say I’m really glad I had today to get all my stuff together so I could have a more relaxed goodbye to Granada.
Mark, our program director. He is so great!
Some of the girls.
My last couple of days in Granada have been really great. Our host mom asked us to make a list of all our favorite foods so that she could make all of it for us before we left (croquetas, albondigas, tortilla, sopa de crema de verdura, pescado). She is so cute and I’m really going to miss her!
This is my Spanish family! Abuelo wasn't there for the picture and neither was the dad, but we spent most time with Isa, Antonio, Isabel y Fernando anyway.
On Tuesday Anne and I went on a hike up to a hill above the Alhambra. Besides it being about 700 million degrees (it has been unbelievably hot these past few days!), the hike was hard! We chose that hike, though, because it was the first one we did in Granada so we thought it would be nice to make it that last also.
Finals all went smoothly and I am officially a senior in college. That is weird. I’m just not quite ready to be so close to the end.
Despite how sad I am to leave Granada, I have a pretty awesome month ahead of me.
Here’s the schedule:
May 22-24: Budapest
May 25-27: Vienna
May 26-31: Prague
