Cadiz is spectacular! Every moment I spend here I love it even more!
Our first day of traveling however was less than fun. After a travel day that spanned 26 hours, by the time we arrived in Cadiz, a feeling of relief was universal from the students to the chaperones. The traveling was nonetheless fun, as everyone was excited about the trip and able to share that excitement with their best friends.
When we arrived in Cadiz we were all greeted by our house moms. Pictures were taken, cheeks were kissed, and everyone went off to their respective houses. Some of us stayed the night alone, waiting for our roommates the following day. Although we were nervous about the first experience with our families alone, their hospitality and motherly caring made us all feel right at home… until dinner that is.
Dinner was an experience for all of us. For some, more traumatizing than others (some people even had their first experience with SNAILS!..or in Spanish “cacaroles”).
Our first day of school was an adventure. Most of us had no idea we were actually going to be learning! While we had no idea what to expect, the school proved to be beautiful and quite different than Cary Academy, a nice change of venue.
