I have arrived

Hey everyone! Well, I've finally arrived in Spain after a long and grueling flight schedule. I flew from Chicago to Philly, Philly to Lisbon, Lisbon to Sevilla. I barely made my flights (I had to run to catch my planes in Philly and Lisbon) but alas my bags and I made it safe and sound.
I arrived in Sevilla at noon on Friday, and my friend Marion met me at the airport. It was so good to see her again!
That afternoon I went to one of my favorite restaurants in Seville called La Mia Tana. It's a great little italian restaurant that has good pizza. There I met up with my Brazilian roommate Marco, my German roommate Kaya, my Israeli friend Yair and a new friend, Gerald, from the Netherlands. After chatting for awhile, Marion and I decided to go for a walk while the boys eat. I say my goodbyes and turn to leave and *SMACK* I run straight into the glass door, in front of all my friends and a packed restaurant. It made such a big noise that I just rushed out of there, holding my face in my hands in utter embarrassment. Gerald came out and said "Are you OK?? That looked pretty bad." Oh I was so embarrassed. Kaya later told me that there was an imprint of my face on the glass door. Needless to say, it wasn't a great start to my time in Spain, but luckily all my friends were really nice and didn't tease me about it. But for the sake of my ego I think I'm gonna stay away from La Mia Tana for a few weeks. ;)
It has been rainy here, and oddly chilly. You need a sweater at night, which is crazy because last time this year it was so hot you could barely function.
I went out last night on the town and it was good to hang out with everyone again. I am still adjusting, since I still feel in Iowa mode, but this is normal. I do miss all my friends and family though.
Anyway, I will write more when more happens. So far there isn't much to tell, except for my uber embarrassing run-into-a-glass-door incident.
Hope you all are well.
Besos!
