Transporte Chaos

Today begins the Fair in Sevilla. However, everything is crazy due to the fact that planes are still not flying in North Europe. I suppose I am lucky to be stuck at home in light of the fact that some kids in our program went on trips over the weekend and now can't get back to Spain. The crazy thing is that I still Don't even know if my flight is canceled. It's looking very probable since there have been no flights since Thursday and the volcanic ash cloud is growing. The London airports are currently closed until at least 7am and my flight leaves at 2:40pm. Who's to say?
The unfortunate thing is that all of us have trips this week due to not having school. The ash has now spread to Italy, a popular destination. On the other hand, having a canceled trip is not as bad as being stranded away from home.
I went to visit Dos Hermanas yesterday with another American student. The other girl is Laura and her parents went to Forcey when she was a child, the same church my grandparents go to. We had a pretty intense discussion about Catholicism and religion. Then we helped make wedding invitations and met the fiance, who is Canadian and Spanish. We practiced speaking Spanish.
