see ya later, America!

We are currently sitting in the Atlanta airport killing an excruciating long amount of time before our flight to Madrid. I'm so ready to be there. Yesterday I was questioning if I even wanted to go and now I can't wait to be there. I've even been in contact with my host brother from my first trip today, and we are trying to figure out a way to meet up. It would be really cool to see him!

We got our itineraries and it looks like we'll be busy, but have plenty of time to explore. It's nice that everything has already been pre-booked for us by a travel agent for this trip. We don't have to worry about buying train tickets and making it on time and what not; because she's already done that! Everyone in our group seems to be friendly and I think we'll all have fun adventuring together.

I'm sure the plan ride will be a wonderful nap for me, and then when we arrive it will be 8:15 on Friday morning in Spain and we'll have a day of travel and leisure ahead of us.  I realized I need this trip for so many reasons right now. I can't wait to see even more of this beautiful country and acknowledge that the world is so much bigger than me or my problems; and that our Creator is amazing. Amazing for so many reasons. For the different countries and cultures, for providing me with this opportunity, for giving me a glimpse of sunshine in a world of darkness.
