Arrived in Barcelona

After a 9-hour flight from Houston to London, a long enough layover for some fish and chips and a pint, a 3-hour flight from London to Barcelona, and a 30 minute bus ride from the airport to the university, we have arrived at our hotel. We were very lucky to have really no issues with the flights or anything. I was slightly unlucky to have a middle-seat on both planes, but I had my iPod and a good book (The Shack) to help pass the time. 

It's been a long day, and we travelled forward through 7 time-zones, so it is going to be an easy night to sleep, even on this tiny little European bed that I have. Haha.. the hotel is very nice, nice enough to love in for 5 weeks, but it is very small. Luckily, I have a cool roommate, Scott. He's a friend of mine from A&M in the Business Honors Program. He's nice enough to let me use his laptop to post this.

Anyway, we have a few pictures from the travels, the arrival, and the hotel that I will post soon. We have no classes on Monday, so the rest of the weekend should be both restful and very enjoyable.
