Alright, day 6 of classes, day 7 at sea and day 8 since I’ve left Nova Scotia and guess what? TOMORROW I’M GOING TO BE IN SPAIN! I seriously can’t even begin to describe how excited I am about getting to Spain. The ship is supposed to dock around 8am, so I’m definitely getting up early and watching as we pull into the harbor. Then I’m headed to the beach until about 11:00 or so when I’ll go back to the ship, change, and get ready to hit Cadiz for my city tour/archaeology museum trip which won’t take that long. My roommate is only doing a day thing as well, so we’ll probably get dinner together and then hit up Cadiz!
Yesterday we learned about Spanish food from David Geis, the guy with all of the insane credentials (I don’t know if I mentioned him before, but he has a Ph D from Pitt and has published like 5 books and 100 and some articles about Spain. He was knighted by the prince of Spain and everything!
So I’m back to typing this blog entry several hours later (and much tanner!). Apparently I might be going to Cordoba instead tomorrow. Which I’m ok with. I think it would be a great time. So, Cordoba tomorrow? It sucks that I will have to get rid of my tickets for the city orientation and archaeology museum, but Oh well, I really want to go to Cordoba! (The sunset is really pretty BTW) So anyway, we are now debriefed on what to expect in spain and how to get on and off the ship and times and stuff. Just be back on the ship the 4th day at 6pm! I’m really excited about everything though. It’s going to be a blast. I’m definitely getting up super early to see us pull into port. And by super early, I mean around 7:30am. Haha. But I hear it’s an amazing experience just pulling into port. The first port is going to be the greatest. The 4th day here however is going to get a little lame since I am going to have to start my Global Studies paper and do a lot of work for coffee house nights, but I think it’s going to be a great experience!
Anyway, off to hang out and get some trips planned for tomorrow and to just relax. The weather was beautiful today. I have a nice base tan, and I’m ready to hit up spain!
Keep in touch!
Adios!
That's so awesome. It's supposed to be mostly sunny with the the high in the mid-80s. Enjoy.
