Hotel Almazara Nerja

After days at sea we had a short stop in Malaga before docking the next day back in Savona. I have decided that I am not crazy about the days at sea. Even though I really enjoyed all the ports, I don't think I would do anther big curise. The fact that there were only small number of people who spoke enlgish on the ship was interesting. So wanted to speak another language .. any lanaugage. Even when I told the Germans I did nto speak Germann they kept talking!

... dinner. We ended up renting "I Love You Man" through iTunes and allowed it to load while we headed to the main street near our hotel and ate some delicious kebabs. Ufortunately my banking situation has been totally screwed up this past week so Scott has had to foo bill for almost everything, though he commented that he did not mind paying for the kebabs at all because they were so simply delicious (the best I've certainly had in Europe). After dinner we went back ...

After two days of walking the beautiful hills of Frigiliana, we made the trip to Granada so that we could see The Alhambra – the Crown Jewel of Andulusia. The bus trip took us through the Sierra Nevada region of Spain on a beautiful sunny day; it took almost three hours to get there and then another short bus ride to the top of the hill. When we arrived, we purchased our tickets and got 2 audio guides in English. We then entered a world that has to ...

... a train/tram tour around the city - which isn't very big. and then ended up in a playground where Shae played for a good hour. She met so many new friends. We then went to dinner at an italian restaurant. The food was good. So far so good with the food in this area. I think since it's more touristy than the mtn area where we came from there's more choice here. This was a great Shae day! Tomorrow we're planning to explore the coastline north of here.

... he was saying *****s! Indy and Short-Stuff found a home today too. We had started to become attached to the kittens, Cameron especially liked having them climb all over him. I aslo thought that the remaining two chicks might go home with one of the girls from the kids club, but her Dad talked her out of that idea. We were looking forward to Sunday, our day off. We fell asleep listening to the rain on the tin roof. Almost felt like home... Sunday: Today Cameron and I ...

... people standing in front of a small church. Maria later told me that they have them everyday for the whole week in different areas of the city. Yesterday two girls from France arrived, but they are only here until tomorrow. Tibu is also out of town now so I had to eat dinner by myself with them. We had a spinach tortilla though! It turned out they were only fifteen and when I told them I was twenty they looked at me ...

... of being in a foreign country is dealing with the problems, really getting integrated into the culture, and seeing how different people work. Flying to London was pretty good. I was sitting in a row of three at the window seat and there was a British man in the London seat, he wasn't very chatty and moved to another seat for the majority of the flight. The tv wasn't working, so I wasn't lured into any of the movies (Nanny Diaries was on and I ...

... be more productive for both of us if I wasn't paired with him. Hopefully these arguments sound convincing. Because I don't want to be stuck in a compromising situation that I am unhappy with like I was stuck with in Brasil...I couldn't bear it. But how do I communicate that to ILAACA? we'll see. Anyway, other then that, the classes are great...I'm with 15 other americans, with 2 of them from another program...and they are trying to get ...

So.......we thought our train was at 7:30am so we planned it perfectly. Took the metro got there on time...got into the departure area.....looked at the screen displaying the trains....didnt see malaga... ****! looked at the ticket. 7:10am. It was 7:15am we missed it by 5mins!!!! Our hearets sank! We have been living sooo cheap lately eating the same pasta every night to save money..now this. The ticks were 50euro each ...

... yes later on the way to the airport. I checked-in and sat since I had long enough to wait and bought a way too expensive sandwich. I slept on the flight to London and once in a while peaked through the window to notice it had snowed over France. In London things went fine (as it might go with the custom-security check there)... I read and bought things in the duty-free.
