Orientation

After staying up so late last night, we had to wake up bright and early to have breakfast at 8:00 am. Then we had to make our way over to the Palacio de Congresos, where the actual orientation was held. It wasn’t an easy place to get to, and though we knew we were supposed to be there by 9:30 am, we had not been given any directions, so by the time we got there it was 10:30 am and the orientation had already been going on for an hour!


We turned out to be the lucky ones however, as the whole orientation was a big waste of time… the only useful part was the folders we were given with letters from the Junta de Andalucía that we will need to get our documentation in order for staying in Spain.

Some of the other girls and I tried to stay as long as we could, but we ended up skipping out on the last half, and coming back only for the free lunch. Once again, the food was amazing! The other problem with the orientation was that a lot of people had to leave early to catch the last train of the day to their assigned cities. Luckily I was able to catch a ride with Rachael’s parents, who had rented a car when they came down from Wales to help her settle in.
