Australia 7:11pm

Austria 1:11pm

Spain 1:11pm

Today is not a nice day in Spain. The rain has been falling and it keeps on falling.

I awoke to my damn phone ringing. Lykke Li bursting through the silence. I then realised the trickling rain outside but first attend the the call. I checked the number it was my "Austrian homey" I was meaning to call some time this week, I just hadn't had a chance to yet. My Oma asked how I was and if everything was ok. I responded to the questions explaining about the horrid weather but of the family being so kind. I told her how I was not permitted to do any house work because that was the work of Tatiana, though I do help in the mornings. She told me that the weather had been very nice there, that the sun has been shining and the weather is warming up, this is a good thing, this means that when I come hopefully the weather will be warm enough to walk out comfortably in shorts and a tee.

This morning I made multiple skype calls. George, Amy and home. I miss everyone so dearly but I have not even begun to miss home, I miss Austria yes, but Australia has not even crossed my mind. The people I miss the land I don't.

The reason no blogs have been made is because I have had the most exciting jam-packed weekend ever. I have had no time nor strength to write a blog worthy of the time. It really has been crazy, but I loved every moment.

Friday, The family came home, they explained to me there had been a change of plans, that I was not to accompany them to the beach at Malaga for they would be staying in an apartment to small for us all. I was instead entrusted with the home. To tell you the truth I was so far from disappointed I was ecstatic. I could not wait for the weekend, I had already mustered up the plan of attack. Sangria sesh was definitely on the agenda. So I spoke to Hayley that night and we'd decided to visit Cordoba that afternoon, then we would come back to mine to make Sangria and possibly make it into town.

Saturday, so the shopping was done and the sangria was made into a flower vase and chilled. But instead of drinking that we'd whipped up some Malibu and juice cocktails for the night, we'd decided to save the sangria for the morrow, a day by the pool. So we spent the night out by the pool talking, then we migrated to the lounge and viewed pictures waiting for the time of 1am when most went to the Palma version of a "Club". Time dragged on and we got sleepy almost falling asleep on the too comfy couches. So instead we'd decided to go into Palma another weekend and instead spent the night asleep.

Sunday, the following morning I was up and feeling great, A late rise and brunch with Sangria, Hayley had already come round and we sat by/in the pool with our invention. It was delicious. So we'd finished the vase and thought it best to head into town for something to do. I do not know how it happened but we'd taken some photographs by the old castle then mad our was into a bar, too many shots were had (FREE) and Hayley exclaimed, "Sheena I do not know where you are putting it all!" We then left to take some pictures by the circus animals, then to see Hayley's Spanish grandma, where more drinks were had, then back across the park to the "Club" called "Casino" I asked for the most EnGenius drink ever, red vodka with peach juice. YUM. It was an amazing combination. It was funny though, the whole time we were there the workers sat outside and ate pizza while the two if us sat by the bar drinking. The bill was paid and we started the long journey home, first back to the first bar for another shot, then through the streets of Palma. About halfway down though we came across this bar playing rock music so we ventured within, again another drink..bad decision. We then met an American girl, one teaching English at the school in town. We sat with her and her friends outside until we were kicked out the bar and onto the street. They asked whether we'd like to say with them but no, instead we walked home. Too many stops were made and we got in through the door at 3am. She'd forgotten her keys so She slept on my floor, "Shit time".

Tuesday, Yesterday we walked into town the of us, Hayley, Brooke and myself. To the market to purchase some souvenirs, mine being 5 fans for family back home. We practically bought the poor guy out of all his fans only E2!! bargain. We walked through small cobblestone streets and under ancient arcs. We walked past flowing fountains and blooming trees. The sun was shining the weather was welcoming. A nice day indeed.

I will post the pictures up soon. But not today, I have too much to do.
