Arrival

I have arrived safely in Sevilla! I'll make this entry short because my siesta time is very precious and limited, but I absolutely love what I've seen of the city so far. Our hotel is BEAUTIFUL, the food is magnificent, the staff is great, and the other students are so much fun.

Last night I arrived at the hotel around 6:30, rushed to take a shower, and had dinner in the hotel with my program. The spread was unbelievable, I felt like I was eating like royalty. I wish I had taken a picture! After, I dressed up and went to get drinks at the hotel bar with a bunch of other girls before passing out for the night. I don't remember the last time I was so tired in my life! This morning we went on a walking tour of Seville which was a BLAST.

We saw some amazing architecture and simply wandered the city for about 4 hours today. For lunch my group went to a small cafe where we ordered an array of tapas to share. Those consisted of:

-several types of red meat over potatoes

-amazing tuna over a vinegar-drenched salad

-fried cheese

-the best calamari I've ever had in my life

-bread, bread, and more bread

Examples of forgetting how to speak in english: 

-calling meals "meetings" (ex. do you think we'll be having tapas for our meeting this afternoon?)

-ok thats all I can remember, but just being extremely inarticulate in general because simpler words are easier to process.
