Last full day in Spain!  Going home tomorrow!

I'll be leaving my piso (apartment) at 5:30 AM to catch the 6 AM bus to the airport.  Thankfully I'll be traveling with some other girls from my program all the way to Chicago, so up to that point I won't be alone.  The flight leaving Asturias is at 8:30 AM, flying to Madrid.  I leave Madrid at about noon, and land in Chicago about 2:15 PM Central time.  Then my flight to Moline leaves at 8 PM and I'll arrive at 9.

Joelle left for the States early this morning.  Cortina, a guy from our church here, picked her up at 5:30 AM and drove her to the airport to meet Kayla and Anna, a couple of girls from our program.  They are traveling via London Heathrow, which will be interesting since there have been some British Airways strikes going on for a couple of weeks.  Thankfully for them the British government has told British Airways to quit lolly-gagging and give the workers what they want because Europe has already been plagued with enough travel problems this spring.

I have been mostly packed for nearly a week.  I'm at the point where I just want to go to the airport and sit there.
