So we departed this morning. Seriously one of the saddest moments of my life. I hated saying goodbye to my family. The tears welled up in my eyes but I was able to keep myself from crying. Anyone that knows me knows that I don't cry. Ever. So, kind of a big deal. It was sad to say goodbye to mis padres and Amanda's fam (my second family) but it was most sad to say goodbye to mi hermano. I think it was equally as hard on him. He about cried this morning when we were talking about how we'd miss each other. Last night I said goodbye to Oscar, who is really my brother's best friend, but I'll claim him as one of my best in Ubeda. We made them hug us, none of that kiss, kiss, beso, beso shit. I really hope that one day I can make it back to Ubeda. Part of my heart is always going to be there. In the city, in the people, in the culture.
Well, as I said, this won't be long. We're getting up real early to head to Cordoba in the morning for the day. Hopefully, I'll be able to gain access to the internet again but in case I don't, sorry for the lack of updates. But keep checking back :)
Good to hear from you and glad travels are going well. Good thing you had the bus ride to catch up on your sleep!! Graduations (and parties) occurring here. Missing you! love, Mom
