June 22, 2010After almost a week at sea, we finally saw land today. We went through the Straight of Gibraltar, and as soon as students saw land, classes practically ceased to exist. So many students were out on the port watching our first major sight of land. So on one side we saw Morocco & the other side we saw Spain...both ports that we'll be seeing on our voyage.
We hit land in a few days and you can already feel the excitement in the air. The Living Learning Coordinators (LLCs...aka me) put out a big sheet of butcher paper out for people to start discussing independent trips, and the first sheet filled in a day. We put a second sheet out and it's already filled as well. It's hard getting and/or keeping students' attention on things with Barcelona so close!
I'm really excited about Barcelona, although I'm not sure exactly what to expect. I don't speak Spanish, so the language barrier will be most interesting. :|
