Burgos!

Today, we woke up at 9:00 in order for us to get breakfast. The hostel included breakfast for free. So Maddie, Mel, and I wondered down to see what there was for breakfast. They had toast with Nutella, cereal, coffee, and tea. Maddie had toast with Nutella and water. Mel had toast with butter and tea and I had toast with Nutella and Peach jam.Then we had to gather our stuff together in order for us to go to Burgos. We got a taxi from our hostel to take us to the train station. We got there early and we bought our tickets for Burgos. The bus left at 1:00 p.m. and was arriving in Burogs at 3:45. The tickets cost €17. We left and then for some reason we stopped in the middle of nowhere for a few minutes. We arrived in Burgos and my host mom picked me up at the bus station. I got to meet the host families of both Mel and Maddie. We were planning on meeting the next day in order for us to go get our phones and open our bank accounts. We drove to where I would be staying for the next five months. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and I guess I´m taking over Pilar´s son´s room. We came home and Pilar had made a tortilla de patatas. It was delicious! Then Pilar left for work and I finished unpacking and tried to connect to the internet. Boy was that a problem! I guess Pilar had previous host child that was from China. I guess he messed with the settings of the computer and changed everything into Chinese. Pilar´s son decided to fix the problem by deleting everything and reinstalling it again! Turns out that the wifi hasn´t been working since. So until they can solve this problem, I´m doing all my computer stuff on Pilar´s computer. I think I can make do. Pilar said that one of her friends might be able to fix this problem and so I can do stuff from my room. We´ll see.
