Hola Mi Amigos! version 1.0



Hola mi amigos!

We left Cadiz last night, and today we sat in the Straight of Gibraltar to get re-fueled and we’re back at sea tonight for a Casablanca arrival at 8 am tomorrow morning!

I don’t have time right now to write about Espania because tomorrow (and the next five days) are going to be wicked busy days. I’m going to Marrakech tomorrow, at least one other city the next day, and taking a camel into the Sahara desert, so I need to get some sleep. I promise, though, that stories and pictures are forthcoming. The internet in Morocco may or may not be good, so I might just use up some internet minutes to post a few of the good pictures… I love you guys that much. Feel Glad. :P

Anyway, I’m doing great, things are awesome, and Spain was amazing. In the future, when I’m done paying off Semester at Sea bills (ha), I will return to Spain. It’s sooo good. Café con leche, sweet croissants, Serrano ham, manchego cheese, olives, sangria, tapas… wow. Not to mention beautiful people, beautiful beaches, wonderful traditions and history. I liked Spain a whole lot more than I imagined.

Hey, if you are one of my parents… do me a favor and e-mail me. I haven’t heard from you guys since the day I left America. I know y’all love Maine and all, but hey… I’m your kid. Just kidding, but… really, shoot me a line.

Everyone else, please also e-mail. I’m missing you all.

I’ll be back after Morocco!

Al-Salem Al Lekum.


PS. This picture is of the lobby of our Hostel in Seville looking up to the rooms. Super cool.

  3. Hi My Sweetie,
    Sorry for not sending a comment, this bloggidy thing is a bit tech for me but I am trying anyway.
    I am super proud of you and happy that you are settled in and having the time of your life. Maybe someday I will travel to some of the cool spots that you like best. Maybe, with you?
    Things are quite here with out you guys around, but thats ok.
    I am currently suffering seriously with a major allergy attack, but comming out of it.
    Oh, I had my first guitar lesson today, it was great. So that is what I will be doing while you are away living it up on the "ship" doing a "voyage". Sorry for the slow reply, I will do better. I PROMISE. I too want a photo of you riding a camel. Bye for now. Love Pops.
