halloween!
the complete look! at shelley´s hostel across the street from our place.Hope everyone had lots of trick or treaters and watched tons of scary movies. As for me, I didn´t eat a single piece of candy nor did I go to a haunted house. The young crowd here celebrates Halloween to a certain extent. They usually just go out to a club or bar like every other night until all hours of the morning dressed up as something scary (dead nurse, vampire, zombie, etc...). They don´t nearly dress as creative, funny, cute as the college kids at home haha.
April and I were 80´s rockstars...complete with brightly colored leggings, side pony tails, bright makeup, rockstar shirts, and crazy necklaces. Lucky for me, my friend SHELLEY came to visit for a couple days, and though she had no costume, she still came out to El Kapital - a 7 floor club with different music and a different atmosphere on each floor. It was lots of fun and certainly cost enough...
We had a good visit with Shelley, who is studying in Paris. I have more pictures of us around the Royal Palace and other parts of downtown that I still need to upload.
It is raining again today and I
halloween!
a close up of the crazy makeup and hair! hate it! But TGIF!! And I am sooooo sad to be missing the O.C. right now!!!!
Homesick status: 3% homesick. So barely not even at all. Maybe closer to Thanksgiving I will be? I heard that TGIFriday´s here has a Thanksgiving feast with all the trimmings for a set price. Looks like we´ll be celebrating there... and our extended family will be together for the holiday. I am lucky to be here with people that I not only like, but love. It makes it worth the while and the days pass so much easier.
Last week we went to San Sebastian and Bilbao up north in Basque Country. Here are a few pictures (mostly just of the beach!) We also saw the Guggenheim which was pretty sweet.
Love you!!!!!

next weekend: Granada, Cordoba, Sevilla...

Thanksgiving at Fridays! Wonder if the ones here are open? Nice pictures. The cars look alot smaller over there. The beach looks nice, not crowded. Miss you. Love, mom
