Hola from Europe! Sam here, bringing you all an update of our trip thus far. Today we made our way to Santander in the north of Spain. It was the first time we saw rain in about 2 weeks since we have been here (we’ve been very lucky!). As a group we explored the city, dipping our feet into a different Spanish culture and for some of us thrill-seekers into the Atlantic ocean! We stopped to regain our energy which came in the form of fish and chips along with our favorite Spanish tapa, patatas bravas. Personally I am not a fan of seafood, but my Dad would have rolled his eyes if I sent him another picture of a hamburger, so I decided to expand my palate – I must say that I was pleasantly surprised! At night we went to see the production of “El Cartógrafo” which was a fascinating and overall amazing show. Some of us in the group have a sweet tooth (guilty as charged) so we got some gelato before heading back to the Hostal for a good night sleep before our trip to Bilbao the next day… Well I have to go grab some lunch now because writing this blog has made my mouth water! Hasta luego!
