Spain- First nights there

FINALLY!!!! I am in Granada and ready to start my program :) The flight was quite an adventure in itself after our 3 hour flight. We got on our 8 hour flight ready for take off when they announced that we would all have to get off on account that there was a leak in the engine and it would take a while to repair so we were to get off the plane and report back in 4 hours. The only plus to this whole situation was that we got the seats right behind the second part of the bus near the bathrooms so we had triple the leg space of everyone else.- and i said to my friend steph, "all we need now is a couple of cute spaniards and we will be set". low and behold- two REALLY cute boys from spain came and sat next to us. - steph and I both slept alot of the plane ride once we finally got to take off. Once in Madrid we just got a taxi to the bus station because we wanted to get there the most simple way possible. Little did we know it was going to cost us an arm and a leg!!! haha also, the taxi guy asked if we had tickets to granada yet, i said no (in spanish) which is "no" haha. jk but anyway, he told us that we would probably have to spend the night in the bus station!!!!! if we had bought tickets ahead of time we couldn't have used them anyway because of the 4 hour extra layover- but this put a little bit of panic in both of our eyes. We decided that we would trade off sleeping while the other watches the luggage haha. - we wouldn't really do that, but it was the plan. When we got there at 4:30- there was a bus open at 5:00- so we scrambled to find the bus! We found it and we were off for 6 hours!!!! The bus was really nice and everything went smooth after that. (besides the escalator that moves up but doesn't have steps, jus slanted movement- we almost fell off it until a guy ran down it and grabbed my bags haha). Last night we slept for 13 hours and were fully rested to go out and get tapas and wine tonight! we went by a disco and asked them how much to get in and one guy said 11 euro- and the other said it was free for us! let us cut in, in front of like 50 people! We went in for a little bit and then came back. Now we will all rest because tomorrow we get our host families!!!!
Adios!!!
