Midterms Week, Part 2

Only one more day of midterms, and then SPRING BREAK!  So far this week, midterms have gone pretty well...there was one that was so easy that I was sad I spent so much time studying, and another that was so hard that I couldn't have learned all the material if I had studied all week.  Hopefully my last 2 exams will be easier than that one!

After my exams tomorrow, I will take my packed bags to the bus station, and begin my trip to Morocco!  The schedule I posted a few days ago is what we'll follow starting on Friday and ending on Monday, so you can follow along with me if you'd like.  :) 

After Morocco, a few friends and I have plans to stay in the southern tip of Spain by Morocco and see the British colony of Gibraltar, and then head over to Tarifa for some fun days on the beach and WHALE AND DOLPHIN WATCHING!  I'm very excited for these little trips as well.  

As you can see, I'll be pretty busy, but I'll be sure to keep a journal so that I can report everything that I did while I was away.  Also, something to look forward to when I get back is the face that next week is "Semana Santa" or Holy Week.  

In all my Spanish classes over the years we have learned about Holy Week in Spain, so I'm very excited to experience it for myself.  We had a Granada Seminar last night about Semana Santa as well, so I now have lots of background information and am very excited to see the beautiful processions and decorations each day in Granada.  

Hopefully I'll come back with lots of fun stories and pictures next week, so until then, Adios!
