I'm in Spain! I feel like I have been looking forward to this trip for so long and I still can't believe we finally made it. The layover in Paris was tough since everyone just wanted to sleep from that never ending plane ride but I think we all enjoyed it. We were all looking forward to seeing the Eiffel Tower and it was amazing! Unfortuanlly there was a two hour wait to get to go up it and we didn't have enough time before our next flight, so we ended up taking a boat ride down the Seine River. I was kind of disappointed we didn't get to go up, but the boat tour ended up being pretty cool and it showed us a lot of history that was actually interesting. After all day seeing Paris I seriously thought I was going to fall asleep while walking. We all looked like zombies walking through the airport to our next flight but thankfully that ride was quick and we managed to claim our luggage and get to our bus within 30minutes. Once we left the airport and started driving around the energy in the bus completely changed. Valencia seems more upbeat and a younger setting then paris did. Today we started out with a scavenger hunt and walked all around the University of Valencia campus. Campus life here seems so much more fun then back home because everyone is outside and nobody is on their phone or computer. We got some cold stares, people seem to not be warming up to us too quickly, but the few people we did talk to were very nice and helpful. After we finished the scavenger hunt we went to the beach for the rest of the afternoon and it definitely puts all Texas beaches to shame! The water was blue and we could see our feet in the water and the sand was so white and clean. I plan to spend many more days out their working on my tan. :)
