I am actually feeling like I kind of belong here finally! I still don´t have my luggage (it was sent to Grenada, Florida instead of GRANADA!) which is not fun but everything else is falling into place. I got a phone today and found an internet cafe so having those things doesn´t make me feel so lost.
We were placed into our classes today for the orientation. I am in the intermediate level, which I am happy with. the class is grammar and conversation to get us started and ready for the rest of the semester which oficially starts on Feb. 11th.
We (Tammy and I) walk to school everyday and I love it! It takes about 20 or 25 minutes and I see something new everyday. Everything I mean EVERYTHING is beautiful! We are going to the Albaycin. It is so nice that we have some excursions and trips included in out tuition for the program. We are seeing the Alhambra this weekend and next weekend we are going to Madrid. After orientation is over we have about 8 days free before our classes for the semester start. I am trying to figure out where I want to travel to maybe Barcelona and one other place...It is going to be so exciting to travel all over Europe!
Tammy and I are staring to explore Granada more and more as we get to know our way around. It is the simplest things that amaze me and I am blown away by the absolute amazing ones!
