Translation of condena

In the that time of the year, when I used to go to school, I had to get up very early and leave the house at around seven o'clock in the morning. At this time it was still night, dark and cold outside.
I still needed to get to the traveler's agent nearby to book my flight back to Cancun. I gave myself two more days to stay in the region, as I wanted to make sure that the hurricane was over.
I got up at five in the early morning because I wanted to take pictures of the sunrise. I hoped that there would be some fog, as it would add to the atmosphere and would results in great shots.
