Landed in London right on time, and have 3 doors down stuck in my head, although their song could be a little more upbeat. Other than a 5 minute delay for the automatic plane guide malfunction, so far so good. After checking out the shopping area, with no idea how much I would be in for over the next couple weeks, I went over my class information again, since I have two different starting times listed. Once I finally had a gate number to go to, I headed off and as luck would have it, discovered a Cadbury vending machine. At the gate I checked the boarding time again, and to my astonishment, it was still on time. It is almost as if "someone's" luck from India has finally worn off. The flight to Malaga did have a technical issue, but it only set us back about 30 minutes. It did take a bit to get the luggage, since international arrives were on a different belt than announced for everyone else. After I picked up my luggage, that was actually still in one piece, I waited around for the other EF student, Sandra, sharing the transfer with me. The drive to Malaga seemed short, and even had Shakira playing on the radio, good start. Once I arrived at the host family, I got a brief introduction to some of the basics of the house, most of which I had to guess at the meaning. I'll get the hang of things by the time I leave though, I hope. The husband only spoke a couple words of English, but with the help of one of the girls on my floor, I got a quick tour of our floor, before heading to bed. There were four rooms for students on my floor of the house.
