Salobreña

You know when you just have one of those days that you put away in your memory to revisit again on a rainy day, because it was just that perfect? Well Salobreña is going to be that for me. While it may not have been the most beautiful beach I have ever been to in the world (unfair to compare to the Caribbean), it really was everything together that made it so relaxing. It was a beautiful day, good company, good food, barely anybody was there, and just such a nice escape from class. The unfortunate part of studying abroad is I actually have to go to class... you kinda forget that part when you're daydreaming about traveling in your head. So everyday I have intensive Spanish from 9 to 1, and frankly, its killing me. Let's just say mi profesora may not be the most life-changing teacher I've ever had. But on one fine Thursday after class, my friends Jessie, Sarah, and I (completely spontaneously, yes I am proud of myself) bought tickets for 5 euros to Salobreña. In less than an hour, we were standing on a pebble beach, looking at the Mediterranean ocean. Pure bliss. So we proceeded to do what everybody does at the beach: nothing. The water was freezing, the sand was rough, but it didn't matter. It was just so nice. We decided to climb up on the promontory on the side to take some pictures, and wow what a view. A perfect setting for an impromptu photo shoot! We finished up the day by having dinner on the beach as the sun was setting, and drove home on the bus salty, tan, and happy.
