Yesterday, I woke up and went running. Running is good because it's practice doing things I don't want to do. The problem is my self control right now is muy bajo. So it didn't really go well. But hey I still ran right?
I went to the river, which is really a park. Well it used to be a river and they turned it into a park that splits the city virtually in half. It has a 10 k path from one end of the park to the other. New goal? Maybe. It'll be harder without my running buddies :(
Anyway I had my first real freak out moment in which I got super lonely and kind of mad that I was here and didn't know anyone or have anyone to talk to. It was bound to happen sooner or later. I walked around the city later that day with the two others that are here from Cedarville, Aaron and Rachel, and that helped. Although we never really ended up anywhere. We tried to get to a few places and never found them because everyone sucks at directions and maps and I never trusted my gut. Plus there's something kind of exhilarating about being lost. Call me crazy.
4 hours of being lost was a little much for my legs though. It was hard to move the rest of the night.
I tried to ask my host parents how the food was a a restaurante that I'd passed and they thought I was asking for permission and semi scolded me about how they're here to help and I can do whatever I want I just need to let them know if I'll be here for meals. Which is great. But I'm looking forward to the day that I can communicate without being misunderstood.
Today we went to la peñíscola which as a BEAUTIFUL peninsula with a castle and beaches! :D I got burnt. (The sun is hotter here). But it was a really good day. And I made a friend! YAY!
Super excited for church tomorrow!
