Oceanográfic

So nothing much happened this week, just a normal week in Spain. Had a full week of classes and I was loaded with homework, papers and presentations. Lucky, I pulled through with flying colors and made it to the weekend! We went to the Oceanográfic here in Valencia. It is an aquarium that is in the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias. The main goal of the aquarium is to surrender boundaries so that you feel like you are in the water/really close to the animals. The highlights were: beluga whales, dolphins, and 2 long water tunnels. I saw amazing shark and fish species that I had never seen before. My favorite was the sunfish.

Last night, I went out with some of my new Spanish friends. They all go to the University of Valencia here and took me out on the town, Spanish style. It was fun! Got to go salsa dancing again and then we went to the beach. It reminded me of home because that's exactly what we do, too.

I am heading to Barcelona next weekend! Just bought my train tickets. We are going with a small group of friends from the program for 3 days. It was a spur of the moment trip, but it is going to be so much fun. Then we have midterms the week after. Can you believe it?? I have officially been in Spain a month and I never want to go home! I am already looking for internships in Spain for my Gap year. =)
