Tautavel
was one of my favorite places on my Europe trip (I feel like I say that about every place). This was what really
got me thinking about majoring in Anthropology in college (of course I
changed my mind 1038945 times before settling on that). The morning
was spent on the bus and one of the girls smuggled some extra croissants
from breakfast because they didn't feed us on the bus.
The day at Tautavel started with a brief lesson about mammals and bones. After the brief lesson we headed up to the cave where archeologist were digging. We were told what the archeologist were digging for and learned a little big about techniques used in digging. The view from the cave was incredible and we were given ample time to take photos.
After the cave, we were given some free time to eat lunch and swim. I don't remember this but apparently me and two other people did not like the lunch (tomatoes and mayonnaise, eewww) so we went to the bus to get some pringles and the bus driver was not happy that we woke him up. After lunch we decided to join in with the people who were jumping in off of a rope swing across the river - got to cross that one off my bucket list.
After our break we split up into groups again and learned about the evolution of humans (which I would go on to study in college) and were taken on a short hike before getting on the bus and making the 4 hour drive to Barcelona.
(some photos are mine and some are from my friend Kara ... her camera took way better photos).
