Hellooo everyone. So I realized that in my last post that I forgot to mention something pretty big to me; I'm going to be working at camp again this coming summer!! I'm pretty excited for it; I'll be working on Service Corps again, but if last summer was any indication, I'll be doing a little of everything, which is completely alright with me. The only downside is that I have to be there on May 27th by noon, so I'll barely have any time at home.
So lately I've been feeling like all I do in my free time is look at at bus/train/plane/hostel/hotel websites, trying to plan my trips. I think now everything is set up for our day trip to Toledo, we have bus tickets for the nine of us going to Madrid, and then we have to buy the tickets from Madrid to Toledo at the Madrid bus station. Portugal is almost done now too, all that's left is to reserve the train tickets. For some reason every time we try to buy them online, it doesn't work, so we are probably going to have to go to the train station and get them there. We have our flights from Madrid to Lisbon, and we found a 3 star hotel for about the same price as a hostel, so we'll be staying in a hotel.
I finally got a hold of those two girls, but they can't do anything until after February 13th. The UVA (the university of Valladolid) is having finals right now, except we don't have them since we've only been here 3 weeks. That means that all of the students are doing some hard core studying, so they are kind of busy right now. After that hopefully we will be able to get together.
Last night I went to Cafe EspaƱa with about 6 people, and there were some jazz musicians playing, a piano, a bass, and a drum set. It sounded pretty good, but it was around 10:30 and we were kind of tired, so it was starting to put us to sleep. We left when they took a break half way through, but by that time we decided that we were hungry, so we wandered around for awhile until we found a Turkish restaurant (not the same one we went to before, but very similar food), and had a second supper there, before returning to our homes and going to sleep. The picture above is what I had to eat, it was really good.
This other picture is our dog, Tinko. He's really friendly and hyper. Well, I better go study, I've got my first quiz in geography tomorrow, and I need to review for it. Adios!
