Heyyyyyyyooooooooooo,
a few trips and adventures to write about!
saw barça beat on bilboa on feb 25th! great game...
that thursday, march 1, we left at 11pm for a CEA sponsored trip to
Madrid
. Drove all night (9hours) to arrive friday morning, take a short nap, and then explore the city!
i walked around by myself in the morning and strolled up gran via (like main street). saw all the theatres, shops and restaurants... its a bustling city center.
That afternoon my friends and I went to the royal palace, and toured all of the rooms that visitors are allowed in, wish i could live like a queen, that is the life.
We later walked to the park and rented cute little paddle boats on the manmade lake, just relaxed and enjoyed the sunset. then it was time for some dinner and then back to the hotel to get ready for our big night out. we chose Kapital, since everyone says it is ¨the club¨in
Madrid
and they were right! 7 different floors of music and dancing and a great atmosphere, they even have karaoke and a movie theatre in the club! i was having a good time dancing with my friend sarah and her friend gabe who is studying in
Madrid
. the first time i even thought to ask what time it was, it was already 430am....we got back to the hotel around 5am....crazy
Saturday we had a program bus tour that took us all over the city, then we broke off for some lunch and decided to visit the reina
Sofia
museum to see picasso´s guernica and some really cool paintings by chuck close.
That afternoon we hung out in the park again and just chilled with the hippie drum circle, there were prob like 15 or 20 ppl with their own drums just making some music.
Back to the hotel for dinner and then a long busride back to barcelona! i slept most of sunday to recover and then spent some time on the beach in barceloneta
sweeet life
