Semana Santa

It's SPRING BREAK!!!!! (as of 2 hours ago!!)

Over Semana Santa (holy week) I will be doing a tour of Andalucia, which is an autonomous community on the southern coast of Spain. Here's my itinerary :)

Tuesday (today): Tonight, my train leaves at 7:54 p.m... I am traveling with Kristen Mages, and we will be staying overnight in Madrid in a hostal once we arrive.

Wednesday: Bus to Sevilla leaves at 10 a.m. We will be exploring Sevilla and seeing the world-famous Easter processionals that occur the entire week and that culminate on Friday. It's likely that I'll get to meet up with some friends there too so that should be fun! Leaving Seville Friday.

Friday: Bus from Sevilla to Málaga. Málaga is a beach town on the Mediterranean Sea, and we will be spending one night there. I'm sooooo excited to relax on the beach!! That might be one of my highlights of the trip :)

Saturday: Bus from Málaga to Granada. On Sunday, we will go to Easter mass, find a nice dinner somewhere, and visit the Alhambra (a Moorish palace and fortress) at 6 pm!

Monday: Bus from Granada to Córdoba. Visit to the Mesquita (a really famous mosque) included.

Wednesday: Bus from Córdoba to Madrid to Pamplona. Home sweet home :)


I'll be back next week on Wednesday night. I hope you all have a good Easter; I'll be sure to let you know how mine goes here! ¡Hasta luego!
