We split 3 taxis to Cádiz (69 Euros: 59 from the airport to Cádiz, 10 for the 3 stops at each house). When I arrived at the house, I ate the grilled cheese sandwich my host mom (Oliva Gómez) made for me (not too great…) and "went to bed," which actually means frantically looked for an internet/phone connection and broke down completely when I couldn't find one. Though the room was freezing and I was absolutely miserable, I finally fell asleep - until 1 in the afternoon!
The next day I woke up and discovered that I actually had an internet connection! I think I had been up for about 45 minutes, hidden away in my room, when the buzzer buzzed and the doorbell rang and the next thing I knew, I could hear Oliva telling someone, "Todavía está dormida…" followed by knocking. It was a girl from my program. We walked around for the day and got lost in the city.
But since I have so much to catch up on here, I am going to copy entries from my journal and paste them into here...
