Last Days in Spain

Where have the past three weeks gone!? I can't believe time has flown by so quickly. I remember arriving on the first day thinking, "Wow, we actually have so much time left! This is going to be great!" That feels like yesterday...!

Just to sum of what we have done recently: On Tuesday we went to AquaLand, a water park nearby with really fun rides. There were a ton body slides and a few tube slides. Overall, it was a pretty relaxing time. We came home around 5 and had a noche en casa. We ate dinner at home (and had an awesome egg baguette sandwich) and headed out for ice cream and time in Plaza Mina, one of my favorite plazas (especially because of their ice cream).

On Wednesday, our last full day, we spent our late morning in town buying our final souvenirs and a gift for our host mom, Rosa. When we came home, Rosa told us lunch was being delivered today instead of made by Rosa herself. The girls and I were surprised to find pizza, empanadas and french fries! It was so sweet of her!

Our farewell dinner was at a gorgeous restaurant! We were served several appetizers and were given a choice between three exquisite options for dinner. The night couldn't have been better. Those not going on the extension said goodbye to those headed to Cordoba and Seville, and we headed back home to (attempt to get some) rest for our early morning ahead.

I'm going to miss everyone from session 2 so much! It was such a pleasure meeting all of you and thank you so much for making this summer amazing!!!
