Cadiz, Cadiz!!!

My town, Sanlucar de Barrameda, is in the region of Cadiz, Spain. The actual city of Cadiz lays about 32 miles to the south, an hour bus ride.

Maria and I traveled to Cadiz friday afternoon and arrived at the house of our wonderful hosts Pedro, Leah, and Yajayra, picture below.

We had a wonderful time laying on the gorgeous beach, right outside our friends piso, and hitting up some fun bars and pubs in this ancient city.

Interesting fact about Cadiz? It is the oldest inhabited city the Iberian Penninsula, and possibly all of SW Europe.

We saw some AMAZING sunsets just by standing in their living room. LOOK!

It was also our friend Gabe's birthday! Our hosts through a fun cocktail hour for the gang before we hit up the bars. Gabe is on the far left, next to the diva girl herself. 

Here we are with the birthday boy at Loco Bar (Low Cost Bar). Cadiz has a much more "hopping" nightlife than Sanlucar, so it was fun to really go out and let loose (and club till 5:30 am!) 

And also, I GOT TO SEE HAPPY! Abbi was my bff during orientation and we had been seperated for nearly a week. MUCH TOO LONG TO GO WITHOUT SEEING HER!

LOVE CADIZ AND ALL OUR PEEPS THERE!!!
