Hola amigos!
So mi marido, mi hermano, y mi primo arrived in Granada just fine. Though they did have trouble finding me since my cell phone reception in the apartment was terrible. Sorry guys!
I introduced the family to Granada for two days, then we headed over to Seville for another few days. Seville is a beautiful city with a lot to offer (including tons of one ways streets that would not allow us to drive close to the city center where the hostal resided). Plaza de Espana was beautiful. The Plaza was featured as the planet(Naboo)of Queen Amidala in Star Wars. Someone (Neerav) was very excited about this. We also did several other things in Seville,but I will have to write about it at another time since I still have to pack up for tomorrow. After Seville, we headed down to Tarifa (the southern most tip of Spain). From there we headed to Gibraltar for a day trip. We rounded out the week´s trip in Madrid last night. My brother and cousin flew out this morning. I had a wonderful time hanging out with everyone and it was so great to have family visit. It was like having a piece of home with me. : )
Tomorrow, Neerav and I are headed to Barcelona. We are staying with a Catalan couple via couchsurfing. Barcelona´s annual festival is this weekend so there should be tons of fun stuff to see and partake in. I really hope Barcelona lives up to the hype.
I will return to Madrid on Wed. and then fly out on Thursday. My time has flown by here and I´ve had so many fond memories to take home.
