Alicia Medialdea

Since the end of June, I've been hosting the Chaperone of a group of 10 students from Madrid, Spain. Her name is Alicia and we've been having a blast! She's very outgoing, happy and has a great sense of humor. She's here for her "vacation MONTH". In Madrid, she's a Nuclear Physicist who teaches Belly Dancing in her spare time. We've gone hiking (a few times), to the Phantom of the Opera in DC, and tubing on the James River, among other things.

The students are going to classes in the morning and to activities in the afternoon, like to malls around town, swimming in the river, to a Braves game, Water Country, DC, Virginia Beach, and Busch Gardens.

Alicia's leaving to go back in 5 days. I'm really going to miss her. Anyway, here are a few photos from the past month:

Our superfancy martinis: my Dirty Martini, Alicia's Cosmopolitan, and Bryan's Bourbon and something with a cherry.
