Amazing News!!!

I went to the doctor today and after waiting for 2.5 hours for an xray the doctor told me I didn't need crutches anymore! I am still in the walking cast, but he said as long as I don't have pain I don't need the crutches! I have never been happier, plus next Friday I go back to the doctor and if everything looks good then I get the boot off! That means in a week and a half I am back to normal! It will still take some time after I get the boot off, but it will be such a relief to be "normal" again.
Life in a castle is pretty unreal. The view from everywhere is amazing, we are surrounded by mountains. Every morning we have class for 4 hours and then in the afternoon we do homework because these two weeks are really intense for school. No one really goes down into town because it is such a long walk, but people come when I go because I have to take a car. There is a van that we can use, so every time I have to go somewhere I have to be driven, which everyone really enjoys.
I added some pictures so you guys can see what I mean by this view! The top left is my view from my room, one morning we were above the clouds. Top right is just a view off one of the balconies. Bottom left is the view of the city from the castle and bottom right is the view from my room on a normal day! pretty amazing!
