A Much Needed Night

This weekend I took a weekend off from the adventures and remained in Caceres. Last night we went to some Primevera Fiesta (Spring Party) and it was very flashback to Iowa. We took a bus out to a field and drank the alcohol that we had brought there. There were hundreds of people there, blasting music in their cars and just hanging out. It was quite strange. It was fun, but only because of the people I was with, and not because of the actual fiesta. The actual fiesta was lame.

Today, I chilled all day. I slept in, did a little homework, and planned a trip to Amsterdam in May. Tonight I went with almost the entire group to climb the mountain and watch the sunset. After that we built ourselves a baby fire pit (as in a circle of stones), collected logs and sticks, and made ourselves a very respectable fire on the mountain. It was really cool. We picnicked and then made S'mores. Then we just hung out, talked, and sat around the fire. It was really chill, but one of the most fun I've had in Caceres. I just loved that it was almost our entire group, and we all just get along so well and can talk and hang out and most of us never knew each other before we got here 2 months ago. It's pretty cool how close people become so quickly in situations like this. I've been dealing with a lot of personal stuff lately with the boy's deployment and just life. It was nice to have a chill, easy-going, relaxing night of bonding and talking. I am so lucky to be in the beautiful place with these beautiful people!
