Since Spring Break...

I've been pretty busy since spring break... but not with anything super exciting.
The weather has been pretty amazing most days. I've had a ton of picnics in El Parque del Buen Retiro. My classes have been going well but I've had a lot of tests, presentations and paper. And now we are at the last week of classes!

A few travelling highlights.
The school took us on an optional day-trip to Toledo. It was pretty cute. We saw a cathedral, synagogues and lots of El Greco paintings. it was a pretty short trip but it was free and fun.

Three friends and I went to Barcelona last weekend. We took a bus there and stayed in a hostel for one night and then flew back on a real airline (not a crappy discount one, but it was still really cheap)
We saw a lot of Gaudí architecture, like Park Guell and Sagrada Familia, the church that they have been building for over 100 years. It was all really interesting.
We also went to the beach and I swam in the Mediterranean Sea!

well thats about it.
Home in 11 days!
