First, on Friday I rented a car, a sweet little Citroen Picasso, and David, Ryan, Ashlee, Laurel and I drove to this cool town of Nerja, Spain, about 2 and 1/2 hours southeast of Seville. The drive was so great. I was nervous about driving amongst Spaniards (they are among the world's worst drivers), but it was pleasant. The views were great and it was so fun to drive again, it's been months! Once we got to Nerja, we found our hostel and ate some great pizza at a nice little restaurant on the coast.
Saturday, we woke up around 9 and had breakfast at the hostel, and headed over to a supermarket to buy snadwich stuff for the beach. And BOOM! Right there in the supermarket were cans of Dr. Pepper, waiting to be bought. It was beautiful, haha. The beach was great, very relaxing. There was one moment of stress, though. Ryan and I went free climbing on some rocks (pictures below) and I almost fell. Thankfully, Ryan was ahead of me, and he grabbed me wrist right when the boulder I was grabbing broke off. He helped me get up to the top of the rock, and man my heart was pumping! It was exhilarating. Thanks, Ryan!
Another awesome thing was that we found a non-denominational English speaking church to go to Sunday morning before heading back to Sevilla. That was a pleasant surprise. Overall, the weekend was a great experience, and now I'm ready for my finals this week!
That's me at the top of the rock I free climbed, about 75 feet high.
My Dr. Pepper and I at a great spot for pictures.
I worked on this for hours! It ended up looking really cool.
Until next time...
Peace, love and God bless,
Noel
