After two days...

Well... I'm here! I made it to Sevilla, finally.

After some baggage and luggage mishaps, and some flight delays, and running through London Heathrow to catch our flight to Madrid, I was able to exchange my earlier train ticket and catch the high speed train going toward Sevilla. The flight was just fine, and the train ride was great! Such a cool train with a nice cafe and everything.

The hotel we are staying at right now (Fernando III) is pretty great, and the weather has been quite different than I thought it would be (it is supposed to snow tomorrow, yikes).

Anyways, haven't seen or done too much, yet. We have walked around the city some, figured out our way to the Tech campus, and I have heard Chicago's "If You Leave Me Now" about three times in different stores and such. Also, the mullet is alive and thriving on the heads of older Spanish men!

Pictures will come soon, but until then...

EDIT: My two pictures thus far- (I have been exploring so much, more pics will come soon, I promise!)

En la Universidad de Texas Tech, se habla Espanol... no Ingles para mi!





Peace, love, and God bless,

  2. So I saw that you were keeping a blog during your trip but when I typed in the address I typed "noelinspain" not "noelisinspain" so this random blog came up. I wondered how you could be writing about your trip for an entire year already but I figured it out and now I'm ready to keep up with your exciting adventures...have fun!
