Nieve o no, vamos: Snow or not, we're going

We took the 1 pm bus to Andorra from the Barca bus station, got dropped off at Andorra la Vella and went in search of the bus to Soldeu. We got lucky and caught one right when we got to the stop, and it took us into Soldeu...definitely a ski town...almost, if not all, tourists and employees.
We had to wander in search of our hotel--apparently the google map literally had a cloud covering the whole town--but when we arrived it was nice out. We came upon a travel shop manned by a cute Brit who informed us that our hotel was 5 minutes up the road...way to go us! SO we grabbed a taxi and arrived safe and sound in the hotel, which is really a bunch of apartments. Ours has a futon and two beds, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a living room (the last two are combined into one room.
We ate our dinner and did studio work, then watched game shows in French...THAT was entertaining! I'm nervous about boarding tomorrow since I haven't gone since Sr. year...oy! I'm here, so I guess we'll see what happens!
We tried to "go out" to a bar in one of the 3 hotels next to ours, but that ended within 5 minutes when we realized we are basically the only human beings in this little area outside Soldeu! It was cool by me; I just grabbed a mint hot chocolate from the cafe in our apart-hotel...it was DELICIOSO! Consistency of melted chocolate with some milk...yeaaaaaa. haha.
Boarding tomorrow! Yay physical activity! Boo being nervous!
