Viaje!

I'm bouncing today for my spring break! it is Semana Santa (the week before easter) which means that here in granada there will loads of religious pilgrims/tourists coming to see the parades and religious festivities that only happen here in Andalucia. Since I'm not particularly interested in religious traditions and I have more than 10 days off I'm TRAVELING! My friend Caroline and I are leaving today for San Sebastian, a supposedly beautiful city in the North of Spain in Pais Vasko. Then we're flying to Barcelona where my friend Marti (remember the French mechaniques?) is picking us up in his car (!!) and taking us back to the south of France for a few days!! Then it's back to Madrid for a day before I fly out to Milan then hop a train to Rimini Beach for Paganello, the biggest beach ultimate frisbee tournament in the world. I will playing for a women's team from England called Discuits. I'm so excited! I've been running about three times a week since I've been here, but I really hope that I'm in shape enough to play a 4 day tournament... I made sure to bring plenty of ibuprofen.. I wont be back to home base Granada until march 25. so until then... ciao!
