I forgot to mention one other thing about Morocco...don't worry it will be quick. This is purely for my own memory conservation and for others if you care to be interested. :)
While we stayed in the desert oasis, we had seen the sunset from the top of the dune but the next morning we ALSO woke up super early to see the sunRISE! It was probably the most beautiful sight I have ever seen and I forgot to mention it before! Anyways, we woke up around 5:30 to see the sunrise. It was very cold, especially walking in sandals up the dune. I only went about halfway up this time but it was as good as ever. It was so incredibly beautiful to see the sun peak out over all the dunes below us. This time I sat by myself and did a lot of reflecting about myself and how this whole experience abroad has been for me. While looking at something so beautiful like that its hard not to think about your life and where it goes from here. I have been feeling so many mixed thoughts about what I want to do next with my life. I know right....you are STILL in Spain, and you are finishing up a whole semester there, why need to start planning for something else...just chill out right? Right! I am so ready to be home and see my family, friends, teammates, and the Twin Cities which I miss so much too. However after being here for so long, I can't imagine just settling right back into my old routine again so easily (hence the escence of re-entry culture shock, but still). I feel the need for more adventure! But maybe my next adventure IS figuring what to do with my life. Lord knows that no one, especially at my age, is supposed to know where their life is going or what they will end up doing and there is adventure in that. You know, I don't feel rushed to be thinking of these things and my future (long term) quite yet, but I do know I need to be aware of myself and what I need to do to find my way through this life. OKay...just word vomit there, sorry! :) I will add some pics here from Morocco for people without facebook to see the highlights of the trip!
