Arrived - wrong town
We were supposed to be flying from Hahn to Santander, but the weather was so grotty at Santander, that after trying to land 3 times, the pilot decided to land in Bilbao instead. We did wonder, if we´d have to make our own way from there to Santander to pick up the rental car, but Ryanair laid on buses to take us there – not bad for a flight which only cost 4.99 Euro! Better service than we had hoped for.
We drove down to Salamanca yesterday and found the language school – after quite a lot of searching, as we couldn´t find the road on the map at first! Today we were up at 6:30 (some “holiday”!) to grab some breakfast and come in to the school to be tested for our level of Spanish. Quite unjustifiedly, Ruth seems to have copped an easier class, with only two others in it, whereas I am in a class of 6 who seem to be studying at a more advanced level – both are pretty basic however!
