I leave for Spain, tomorrow

Can't hardly believe it!
One, because I'm going to be screwed as far as hw goes. When I return, I'll have 2 days to write 2 ten page papers, one of which I need to research for (kill me after I've enjoyed Spain before the 20th when the papers are due) and the next day I'll have an exam. Papers are worth 60% of my grade and exam is worth 70%.
Why did I do this to myself?
Possible solution: finish all the wolf management research tonight. Take it with me and work on outlining and brainstorming while waiting in the airport and on the bus. Take exam notes with me to study on plane and bus rides. When I am back, don't sleep and write like crazy. Pray really hard during Semana Santa that my muse will come back from vacation to help me out.

So Spain, here is the travel plan
Leave at 2:40 am for the bus station. 3:30-4:30 am ride bus from Galway to Shannon. 6:45-10:45 flight to Barcelona. Check out Barcelona sola until Anna arrives late at night from France.
Spend April 6, 7 8, 9 and first part of 10 in Barcelona.
April 10 take a bus back to Girona, fly to Sevilla and arrive in the evening. Spend April 10, 11, 12 in Sevilla.
Take a bus early on the 13th, spend the 13th in Cordoba.
Take a bus to Granada and spend April 14, and 15 there.
Take a bus to Madrid, spend the 16th and 17th there

After all of that couch surfing, only one couch found, in Madrid. And not through the website, but one of Anna's friends. Oh well, it was a try I guess.
No real plans of what to do when in Spain, just a list of recommendations of things to do. I'm excited. I think the only things we need to still take care of are buses, which should be easy enough to either get there or do online at a computer at the hostel in Barcelona, and make a reservation for the Alhambra in Granada. other than that there are only a few bumps in this road that I have faith will work itself out, but I'll wait to share after they do, so as to only have good things to share, hopefully ;)
