Today has been the most relaxing day yet. Emily and I woke up around 8:30 and after a delicious breakfast at the buffet downstairs we ventured to the beach preparing to plant ourselves for the entire day... and it went as planned. So much so, that I forgot to eat lunch... whoops. Even after applying sunscreen at least 5 times I still managed to get a rosy back, but all is well :)
There was a large group of us just hanging out on the sandy beaches. It was so nice to relax and enjoy the beautiful ocean and enjoy the sound of the waves... it was the perfect way to enjoy our free day in Andalucia. I can also now say with confidence that I swam in the freezing cold Medetraniean Sea... my word, it was the most exhilarating and painful thing I have ever experienced and I wouldn't have changed a single minute of it.
This is where I spent my day :)
After I finally decided to take a break from absorbing vitamin D, I came in and fortunately got to skype with my mom! It was so great to catch up with her since I haven't been able to in a few days.
Then we enjoyed another fabulous dinner in the hotel downstairs and then went to cafe across the street to watch the Spain vs. Chile game. Our time was short lived there due to the sketchy viewers that were there with us BUT the good news is I saw the most precious baby while I was there. He was the roundest, fattest, baby I've ever seen and he was sporting an Espana bandana. Adorable.
Now we are hanging out in the room preparing to leave for Granada tomorrow... our last stop in Andalucia. For some of our group the end is in sight. More than half of my classmates here will go back to the states this weekend and only 11 of the 28 or so of us will remain. Its been a wonderful experience getting to make new friends and strengthen the friendships I already had.
