Coffee Club

I found this one in my drafts folder.  Oops!

Pause

I'll have been home from Spain for two weeks tomorrow.

I've been too busy to miss anything other than my friends so far.  In the past two weeks I have:

• eaten half a jar of peanut butter in a week, all by myself
• re-read all the Beka Cooper books
• rock-climbed for the first time
• drove 9 hours through rural Indiana, by myself, also for the first time
• ran eighteen billion errands around campus
• finished classes for the semester
• carried a lot of boxes
• seen a whole lot of friends (though not enough; it's never enough)
• gone to formal and had a blast
• gotten very far behind in my journal
• cleaned out my entire closet

If this is any indication of what this summer is going to be like, it'll be a busy, fun one.  Last night I finally got my first full night of sleep since before leaving Spain.  

Since this is a travel blog and I'm now home for the summer, it'll be quiet around here for a while, I imagine.  Hopefully someday I'll have reason to travel-blog again, though.

Last one

I took this on our last evening out together; I've been home for a few days, and this is the last unpublished photo that I have.  I climbed those steps every day to get to and from school.

Últimos días

Since it was so beautiful out yesterday we decided to take our study session outdoors.  We sat on the roof of the town hall for about an hour before moving on.  This is the view of the aquaduct from there.

If there are books out, that means we're actually studying, right?

Alcazar with the sun out

8 down, 1 to go

Before leaving for study abroad, I had never been on an airplane.  Now, I've been on 8, and I've learned a little bit.

• Babies are dumb
• Wear all the clothes.
• Landing sucks
• Bring food
• Don't even try to stay awake.  It won't happen.
• Sometimes people are nice but usually they smell.  Me too.  Oh well.

Sometimes the sun does come out in Marseille
