Last Excursion

Today we had our last ISA excursion! We went to Santander, which was actually the location of our little bus incident a couple weeks prior. Once we arrived, we took another bus to the Real Racing Club soccer stadium to watch their open practice. Unfortunately, we arrived at the very end, so we didn't get to see more than a few minutes, but it was still cool being in a stadium, and so close to all the players! After the practice, we walked along the beach, which was beautiful, and went to get ice cream at a famous heladeria where the king has even bought a cone! We walked to the peninsula of the city, where this is a park with a little zoo with penguins and seals that were fun to watch. After, we went to this packed bar, where we all got to try our first taste of "green cheese", which seems to be a version of blue cheese, but a little stronger? We had free time for the rest of the afternoon, so Natasha, Summer and I went and found a little cafeteria to have lunch in and did some shopping until the bus arrived. The city is apparently one of the most beautiful in Spain, and it was a very nice last excursion! I have really enjoyed spending time with my ISA friends, and I'll definitely miss our trips...they were all some of my favorite days in Spain!
