Hotel Fuerteventura Princess Jandia Peninsula

... clear and a beautiful shade of turquoise. It looked very inviting and Kim went in up to her knees. She was nearly going in until a wind came. A few local women were braver and went in swimming.

Eating and drinking is not all we do but it was time for lunch and Val had spotted a restaurant which had the balcony overlooking the water

We had all adapted well to the chilled out lifestyle of small fishing villages but it was now time for a change…

6 weeks left here in benidorm before a flying visit back home to see everyone then im off to Thailand, Oz and Fiji for a few months travelling.

Currently loving the 'dorm, its probably the most random and bizzare place to rep and although its a bit quiet at the moment having amazing nights out with the rest of the fantastic team we have here, still time to come and see me!!!

... pass by to help out in the garden, baking bread, gathering wood, repairing parts of the house and taking care of the two and a half donkeys (Trinity is pregnant) and the chickens. I felt really welcome and felt directly at home and part of the whole project. We helped out wherever we could: gathering and carrying wood ...

... and walked all around trying to find them to no avail. No one at the reception desk was very friendly and when I asked about the three different times printed about our arrival in Barcelona one girl yelled at me that I was wrong. That was the end of my happy vacation. Went back to the room and packed and Rachel went to the disco and we got 4 hours of sleep.

... getting ourselves into, we embarked on the hike with just our "flippy-floppies". The start of the hike was nothing more than a walk in the park with a nice stone path that led us into a manmade tunnel. The tunnel was pretty neat, complete with ropes to help guide us in the dark and to avoid bailing on the slick rock. Once out of the tunnel, the path changed ...

... we went to see and in Altea there was a beautiful rocky beach where Cristina and I had a really good heart to heart about our lives. Hehe, so corny but it was really good. I <3 her mucho!~! I love good listeners since I'm such a big talker, tehe, but I love talkers too, which thank goodness both Elizabeth and Cristina are!~!
And hollaback at that anchor!~! DG love!~! o--+--)

So today was the first day of the official CIEE program in Alicante, Spain. I realize now just how freaking lucky I was to have Elizabeth as my travel companion. I'm so glad it worked out well. We like exploring and we both have enough guts to get us around as well as we're on the same schedule when going out and about around the town and we were able to discover quite a bit just on our own in the last two days in Alicante ...

So Alex had to go back to the consulate in the morning and being true friends me and Olly decided to join him. In the Brittish consulate you basically have about 15 people at any time who have had their passports robbed. During our short stay we spoke to a few fellow British people around us. A particularily funny convosation started with an old british man who was keen to share his words of wisdom, unfortunately, he was not even slightly wise. He started the ...

... br>Other highlights of the night include a lonely spanish man with a moustache, when a ladyboy started to dance with Jessicas brother Tomas, Alex licked a mans roses, I sexually attacked a lion statue, and of course when we all shredded the dancefloor with our 'Jump style' techno dancing, similar to the action of a shocked chicken. We slept well after the sun rose for only a couple of hours.

Emma leaped and bounded towards us when we got off the bus. It was so exciting to see her. I barely even remember if/what we said to each other, but I know it was _so_ exciting. And the entire city was there to support our feelings. There were fireworks and explosions on the entire walk back to Valencia. Deafening is not an exaggeration. At least three times a day I lost hearing in one ear, if not both ...
