Mikey came to town!My cousin Mike Kelly and his two friends, Casey and Matt, came to town last Tuesday. They were in the middle of a two week whirlwind tour of europe, and Alicante made it to the itenerary... no big deal. They were in town for two full days, three nights- plenty of time for beaching and "barrio-ing." They got to see all the major sights, at least from a distance. (They never made the hike up to the castle, but there is still a nice view of it from Playa Postiguet, so no pasa nada.)
Even though my spanish roommate, Cristina, is slightly on the anal-retentive side and likes to leave libby and I random Post-It's with different messages of things she doesn't like around the apartment, we all managed to stay in our little apartment with no problems. The boys got to spend everyday on the beach, and gave Bromsky someone to hang out with as I studied for my last final in my court interpreting class. It was a great few days and it was nice to see a familiar face.
Last night all the Mizzou kids from our program went to the Alicante C.F. (the local soccer team, Division 2) playoff game. The game was at 8:30 pm and we had the perfect seats to see the sunset. The team dominated 3-0 and we even snuck down to the lower section for the second half, scoring some killer second row seats. Here is a video we caught of a nasty play... Alicante is the blue team. Major Foulage. We are testing out the blog's video abilities, let me know if it doesn't play.....
