Trip 1 - Final Performance

Tonight was trip 1's final performance - and it was beautiful.

We started the day with a trip to the water park to ride some water slides and cool off, rehearsal and packing in the afternoon, a fancy dinner at a hotel with all the countries, then off to the town of Argamasilla to perform that evening. The building we performed in had an outdoor amphitheater and was also the location where Cervantes wrote Don Quixote in prison. We visited that area after the performance and took a few photos.

We performed with a local group from Argamasilla which made for a fun evening. The show was beautiful - filled with smiles, power and energy! Following we said our goodbyes to the guides, band, and Ellen who will be heading to the festival with Trip 2 in Badajoz. It was a special time together filled with laughter and tears.

Late night bus ride to Madrid to visit in the city for a couple days before heading home. What a magical trip it's been!
