La Familia

I made it!

These last two days have been SO LONG. Travelling was...long. And I was so, so tired when we got in to Alicante at about 1:00 pm...which meant I had been travelling for over 24 hours and I now faced the daunting task of staying awake until bed time...and dinner was at 8:30, with a walk around town at 9:30. Lovely.

But really, it is lovely! On our way into town, we passed the GORGEOUS beach, and the city is so awesome, too! I moved in with my family today. I live with Isabel and Daniel, and their 21 year old daughter Paola. Their 29 year old son, Roberto, lives downstairs. (And the apartments on the 3rd and 5th floor are also relatives...nobody lives on the fourth floor and those are the only floors in the building. Family party!) Everything is VERY nice, they are very hospitable, and they tell me my Spanish is really good even though sometimes I think they're lying.

Basically, I'm having a great time. I miss everybody at home, but I am excited for what is ahead! Tomorrow is our first day of school and I am super nerviosa, but it's going to be good. :) Thank you all for the support and stuff...it means a lot to me to know I have so many people that love me waiting at home.
