Day 1 - January 7, 2009

We made it to Barcelona today....and we only had to run through 1 airport but it all turned out to be ok. We made it to our homestay in one piece. We are leaving with Montserrat Roig, a 60-65 year old lady who is about 5'3" and speaks Spanish like a mad women. Needless to say, I'll be learning very quickly. Brown and I are sharing a room about the size of mine at home if not a little smaller....we will know each other very well by May 6th. She made us an awesome dinner so I think as long as we can tell her that food is awesome in Spanish she will put up with us for right now.

Tomorrow we have nothing to do so I think we are going to explore that city and make sure we know where we are going once all the important stuff starts.

Until next time...

  1. Thanks for setting up this Blog, Ian. Kyle H., Matt K. and Matt W. arrived about 7PM Barcelona time. Kyle sent an email and said that he is sharing a Homestay with 6 other students. 2 of them non-english speaking females. And a smoking hot house mom... or maybe that was a heavy smoking house mom... oh well, he's giving it a shot. Not too much more details than that.
