Buenas Dias,
Sorry, I know I haven't posted in awhile but I have been so busy with adventures that I just never found the right time to actually sit down and write. This past weekend was spent in Malaga Spain, with Inter Hispania and the rest of the kids in my program. These people are some of the best friends I have, as we are all very adventures and are thrilled by the unknown and everything lying within it. We easily get along. These people are inspiring and each have such complicated and awesome stories about their life, they are never a bore, and neither was this trip.
On Thanksgiving, I boarded the train with my Madrid squad and we took the three hour train ride to the coastal city of Malaga. To give you some perspective of where Malaga is situated, on a really clear day you can barely see Morocco over the mediterranean.
On the first day we immediately got off the train, ditched our bags in the hostile and sprinted through the city's streets to the beach, where we spent the evening swimming in the frigid ocean, dancing, and eating chocolate covered peanuts. The next morning, we had all arrived and I was reunited with my Spain by Storm Squad (That's an inside joke, so just know that I love these people very much). We ate breakfast on the rooftop deck of our hostel overlooking the rising sun and the gorgeous city, and then began our tour of Malaga. We first toured the busy street, and markets of the city, learning about native plants, and food, side note; I bought some really tasty grapes. Then we went and walked into the ancient arabian palace, situated in the middle of the city. The views from this place were incredible, as well as the ancient architecture and stone work that sat along the castle's walls.
The next day we spent in the picasso museum, were we not only got to see his family's private collection, but learned many facts about his family and the many women and children he had in his life. After the tour of the museum we had the rest of the day to ourselves, where we got to see the lighting of the cities Christmas lights and explore the rest of the coast's beauty. All in all, if you are in Spain you must go to Malga, it is impossible to be disappointed there.
Hasta Luego!
Dylan.
