Madrid

Alright, so we’ve been in Madrid for (I think) three days now, and it’s been wonderfully fun. I was able to visit the Museo del Prado and see a bunch of paintings by Goya and Titian and Rafael this morning, and also to visit El Parque del Buen Retiro. Besides that, I’ve spent a decent chunk of time simply wandering around the different barrios (neighborhoods), which has taught me how much people love beer and ham in Spain. Who'd have guessed it? More than anything, wandering around just made me wish that I had more time here. Instead, I think I’m going to try to come back and visit Madrid again during the semester.

As always, here are a very select few of the things that I've seen.
