January 1 - First and Last

Today is the first day of the new year - but it is also the last day of my school break and more importantly, the last day that all four of us will be together in Spain.  Emily leaves in the morning to go back to her life in Santa Barbara and Rachel leaves tomorrow afternoon to visit Tangier with her friend Emily. 

We spent a bit of time this afternoon at a park taking some photos.  Rachel set up a number of timed shots and took some nice photos... I, on the other hand, managed to snap a few process shots.

After our time in the park, we headed over to the theater to see the Flamenco show.  A normal Flamenco group consists of a singer, a guitarist, and two dancers.  Today, they had a special New Year's group with an extra vocalist and an extra dancer.  The show was fantastic.


Then we came home and got ourselves together and headed out for our last dinner together.  It wasn't fancy, but we had a good time.


As a final celebration, we went for gelato. 


It is going to be very quiet around here tomorrow night....I am so thankful that everyone made the effort and spent the time to come and visit.  It will still be beautiful here, but it won't be the same without everyone.
