Monday FunDay.

MY WOUND IS MUCHO MEJOR (much better). :)

Ciudad de Las Artes y Las Ciencias in Valencia.

That being said, the rest of my weekend was very calm while I rested and tried to encourage my darn foot to heal. Miguel has kept a careful watch over its progress and cleans and wraps it everyday. I also had to wear a bag over it when I showered the last two days, which has left me reminiscing on when it didn’t hurt for me to hold my leg above my head that long…. Oh how I miss you dance and cheer.

Fillin' her up!

Today was busy and wonderful because a group of six of us from ISU headed to Valencia’s science museum after classes. It was a fun walk for Katie, Matt, Christian and I from school to the museum area because we walked in the 9 km strip of parks which was once a main river through the city. Although every bakery in town was closed for siesta, we happily waited for our other two friends at the outdoor café in the beautiful Ciudad de Las Artes y Las Ciencias.

Doing the impossible - standing/walking.

After around three hours in the 3-level museum, we were worn out from acting like the 11-year-olds running around with their tour guides ahead of us. We spent a solid 15 minutes if not more watching a baby chick hatch out of its shell and learn to stand (How did I never see this as a kid!?). Another bulk of our time was spent in the “chromosome forest” doing a million different interactive activities.

Resting in my little bubble of fun.  

Leaving the museum was great because of the most exciting activity of all…WaterBalls. In the middle of the area, four of us paid our 5€ apiece for 10 minutes of playing in giant bubbles. I have got to tell you, it gets very hot in there, but I advise you to never pass up a cool experience like those waterballs. As my mom says, “When else will you ever get the chance to do that?!” So. Much. Fun.

Up for 2 seconds then right back down. 

Lastly, I just want to get everyone excited about this weekend when Katie and I will be heading to Marrakech in Morroco, Africa! Be thinking of us with our money belts and pepper spray in a city that speaks Arabic…(we don’t) Hope your week has started off with a bang and thanks for reading! :)

Falling in our bubbles. Crazy fun!
