I love having visitors! I was lucky to have my good friend Julie from high school visit me for 6 days. She is also a teacher and living and working in Barcelona, Spain. It's always fun to show people where I live. We enjoyed a desert safari, seeing a few of the glamorous hotels, Global Village ( similar to a start fair, but not as good), a day at the beach and going to a Santana concert. Unfortunately I was sick the entire time Julie was in town so we took it fairly easy. Only 25 days until my Spring Break! I just booked my ticket to visit Julie in Barcelona in March. It will be my first trip to Spain and I'm a little nervous since my Spanish is very rusty. I am also hoping to run into Sandi, a colleague from my first year living in Dubai. I'll be sure to write about my Spanish experience.
