Hello everyone! I've been on Spring Break these past two weeks so excuse the absence. I started off my break with going to Madrid on Friday April 8th (just a few hours after work actually!) to visit my friend Sarah who is studying abroad through NYU. Arrived there at about 10pm, ate something called a "toastas" which is basically like an open-faced sandwich and then called we went to bed at around 2am.
Spanish apartments are so much larger than Parisian ones, let me tell you! I was fortunate enough to even have my own room in her place. Lucky! Anyways, the next day started off with Museo del Prado.

A huge museum that was only conquered because Sarah was my tour guide and had taken a class there the previous semester so she was able to take me around and tell me about the different pieces. After a couple hours there we headed to Plaza Mayor.
We walked around and found the "world's oldest restaurant" and some amazing gezpacho. Which was the perfect thing to have on that hot day.
And then Sarah took me to the royal palace of Madrid where I learned that there was royalty in Madrid... and then proceeded to take some photos...
We walked around for a while after that to just be outside and see the city and then it got pretty warm so we headed back to her place for a siesta.
The night ended with a 7-story club which we went to for one of her roommate's birthdays. Each floor was supposed to be playing a different type of music but I'm pretty sure I heard Black Eyed Peas on each one... Anyways, it was fun. Spaniards love to stay out LATE!
Stay tuned for more! If my internet allows it..
