I'm alive!

Well, I survived my first two days here in Spain!  After many extremely hard goodbyes at the airport, everything went really smoothly.  Our first flight was to Madrid and was a little over 7 hours.  I got my meal called "Koshair" (hahaha) that surprisingly wasn't terrible!  It hit me about three hours into the flight that this was actually happening and I had a small freak out attack and wanted to go right back home.  Luckily, I had my friend Sarah there with me!  I then slept the rest of the flight and felt better when I woke up. Then we had a connecting flight to Granada and that was very short. The view from the airplanes were unbelievable.  The first thing you see is snow capped mountains everywhere.  This city is absolutely beautiful.   I then met my host family!  They are extremely nice and I have two parents and a little sister named Margarita who is five years old. She will definitely be helpful with learning Spanish because she talks just as much as I do!  (maybe even more!)  I can't really understand anything she says yet, except that she has a little pet dog named Rosi and we watched bob esponja (spongebob) together last night.  hahaha  It is pretty awkward still living with a family I've never met before, but I know it will just take time to adjust and I'm trying my best to keep a positive attitude!  Today I had my first day of orientation and I just got back from that.  I got lost for my first time here!  My friends and I tried finding my house for SO long and finally we found it after asking a million people.  And apparently the third floor here is actually the fourth, so after spending ten minutes of trying to put my key in the wrong door, I realized I had to go up one more.  I think that's enough embarrassing myself for the day!  We're about to eat lunch and take a siesta.  I'm missing everyone back in the states so much but I know it will get easier!  Adios for now!
