One more night in Hollywood

My last full day in Valencia Spain.

I woke up around 8:45, got ready, and went to the Xátiva metro stop, where I hopped on, all the way to Palmaret. There, I met Jessica and Macy, and we went to have HORCHATA! Again! For breakfast! This is what happens when you want to soak up every moment you possibly can.

We stayed there until a bout 11:15, and then took the metro back into Valencia. They headed to school for their last day of classes, and I headed downtown to go to the Mercado Central and just hang out for a little while - the day was too gorgeous to do anything else.

I came home around 2:00 for lunch, and we had chicken and potatoes, with strawberries and whipped cream for dessert. Talk about delicious.

After lunch, I packed a little bit, and then around 4:00, headed out to the park by Mislata. I walked around for about an hour, enjoying how gorgeous the park is, the day was, Valencia will always be. It was amazing.

Jessica and Macy joined me around 6:00, and we just sat, listening to music, talking, reminiscing.

At 8:45 or so, we headed across the street to the Carrefour (Wal-Mart) to buy goods for Gaby's birthday party tonight. We ran into Samu there, and Elias later, and we all bought our things and went back over to the park, where we met up with Dovis, Gaby, Dabid, Dani, Markos, and the 3 Cardenas sisters. We moved into the grass and had a picnic there. It was so fun!

Around 12:00, everybody started to leave, and that's when it got hard. Some of our friends we won't be able to see tomorrow, and so we had to say our goodbyes to Dani and Dabid. All three of us lost it. It's unbelievably hard for me to bid my farewell to the people that have grown to be my best friends, knowing that I may never see them again.

Dovis took me home, and I sat and watched a little bit of tv with Matilde before heading up to bed. Now I plan on getting some good rest for my last few moments in the city I call home.

Llorando,
Leigh

  1. I have enjoyed checking your blog every day and reading about your adventures. I know God has blessed everything you've done and will continue to do so. I will be very sad If you don't somehow continue to share your days. I look forward to seeing you again soon.
