Day 58: Highlights and frustrations


Highlight: I got a train ticket to Madrid today, to go this weekend! Exciting! It was expencive, but Ansa Spain will pay for it (Norwegian student organisation)=) woop woop!


Frustration: I have to read about 20 pages about anthropology by tomorrow. Seems interesting, but in Spanish? I think I have understood about 1/10 of the two pages I've read so far... I'm sure it can only get better! (On the other hand I don't understand much of the lectures either, so if the professor asks me tomorrow if I read it I will probably just look like a question mark anyway!)
(I promise the photos will become more inspiring soon...)

Day 57: My first (and hopefully last) visit to a Spanish hospital

As I don't have a doctor here I had to go to the hospital to get antibiotics for my sinusitis. It was ok, boring as hospitals are and I don't particularly enjoy being surrounded by sick people... But the doctor was friendly and helpful, she even took an x-ray of my head! I am proud to say it all happened in Spanish, and I survived... And best of all: it was free! =)

Day 56 (a while later...): Virgen de la Merced


This procession passed by my balcony tonight in Cádiz, Spain! Music, lots of people and a giant virgin with lots of candles... Me encanta España!
