Bowdy’s study abroad trip

Friday morning me and 3 of the guys woke up at 4 am to ride hot air balloons at sunrise. It was a rough wake up but it was so worth it. We sat and waited until everyone showed up. They provided coffee, tea, and croissants for us while we were waiting. It was a cool little spot.

I can’t decide whether I liked camel/atv riding or the hot air balloons better. It was one of the prettiest views I’ve ever seen. Jaycie said some of the pictures I took look like a Microsoft wallpaper.

After hot air balloons we went home and napped/hung out at the house for the majority of the day. Later that night we went to a well known bar in Marrakesh and had some drinks to end the night. We were absolutely exhausted but this was our last night to do anything fun.

Saturday we slept in and enjoyed our last day relaxing. Because of sleeping in, our sleep schedules were super messed up and I didn’t go to bed until midnight Saturday night. I only got about 2 hours of sleep. We left our place at 2:45 am this morning (Sunday) to head to the airport. We had a 3.5 hour flight from Marrakech to Milan, now we are on a train from Milan to Pesaro for 2.5 hours. From Pesaro we will get on a bus and have an hour ride to Urbino. We should get there around 7:30 ish tonight. Surprisingly I am not near as tired as I thought I would be, but I’m sure I will crash once we finally get back to Urbino. This was definitely a great way to spend my last fall break in college. I will say, I never want to eat chicken tangine again!
