Home Sweet Home

Today is my last update from Ciutadella, Menorca, Spain. The only ones left from session 3 are Tab, Brittany and I which is ironically how this trip started. This post won't be very long or decorative in language but more of a farewell. The underwater archaeology students are already here and there are 8 of them. When I walked in today it was odd seeing strangers in our residency which has become our home for the last three weeks. I felt funny walking into the shower room and seeing other people climbing into shower stalls that weren't my friends. It's sort of like, "why are strangers eating our food, sitting at our table and sleeping in my friends' beds?". The realization that we're leaving came with the introduction of the new group.

Yesterday was totally uneventful. We all hung around the residency and I napped for an hour sometime in the afternoon. If I haven't mentioned this before, nothing is open on sundays here. Not even grocery stores. People here hardly work at all, actually and a lot of the time things don't open when they're supposed to simply because whoever runs it doesn't feel like it. It's kind of crazy. We watched Indiana jones as a group as our last night and hung out on the roof till 1am. It was a great last night. Today we went into Mahon with Amanda, Nicole and Ashley. We shopped and then hit the beach. The water was beautiful. Unfortunately we parted ways with the girls because they were staying the night in Mahon to catch an early flight tomorrow. It was sad leaving them. Hopefully we will all get together again someday. Tomorrow morning we leave for Scotland and if I am able I will update but I am not certain on internet connections. So for now I bid you Adieu!
Survived an archaeological dig,
