Adventures in Sevilla

It´s been pretty quite here. I´ve been studying and going to class and hanging out with the people from my house. Last night Victoria wanted to go out, and there were some people from the school going out as well as Remi and Willem from our house so we went along. The boys were going to bike out to the bar so Victoria and I decided it would be better if we rented bikes and go along with them. You can rent bikes for 5 euro a week from the stands, so, with the guy´s help, we figured out the machine, took our bikes and were off.
We got to the bar around 10:30 and the people from school were already there. It was one of the girl´s birthday so we sang "Happy Birthday" at 12 and then the bar closed and we went to a club. The club was fun. It was free to get in and the music was good. At 3 Victoria and I were tired so we decided to go home. We said goodbye to the boys and headed off to find the bike stand. We found it easily and got out a bike. We rode off, Victoria in the lead and headed home.
After a while everything stopped looking right. We kept heading straght, but none of the streets were on our map. I was happy to have the bikes, because walking we would have been so tired. We finally stopped and asked at a gas station, but I have become very skeptical of the Spanish directional skills. I believe they are even worse than mine. I knew we should not take the road he recommended because we had just come from that way and all that was out there was the Cruzcampo Beer factory. I pikced a road and after a few minutes we came to the Cortes Ingles near our house. We parked the bikes, ran across the street and went up to the flat.
The whole time on the bikes we had been joking about how funny it would be if the boys were home before us. When we opened the door to the flat, there they were sitting on the couch. Victoria and I just couldn´t stop laughing. It was hilarious to us because the boys already find our bike riding and directional skills something to laugh at.
All in all it was a good night. We wanted to take the bikes this morning to school but there was only one left at the station. However, we have staked out all the bike stands near the school and plan to ride back so we don´t have to carry our stuff and our groceries so far.
