At 11:30 pm last Friday, a sword held by the bride and groom cut through a massive wedding cake during our friend Hector's wedding.  Our family was lucky enough to be invited because it was a true cultural experience, as well as one of the best times we have had yet in Spain.  Even though the wedding began at 6:30 pm, at midnight people were asking us if we were going to stay for the "party."  We realized early on that weddings, like most parties in Spain, require commitment and stamina.  We are glad that we embraced the experience as best we could, returning home at 3:00 am with the party still continuing in the distance until around 5:30 am.

    Sally and her family moved to Spain for a year from July 2017 - July 2018.  They lived in a little town called Puzol, which is about 20km north of Valencia.  Her kids, Carson and Celia, attended  the American School of Valencia, an International School located in Puzol.  The goal for the whole family was to experience another way of life, and learn Spanish.  

    This blog began as a way to record her experiences with Spanish culture,  but is now devoted to the many cultural differences found around the world and the ways to continuously discover them.
