Gotta Be Spain

First day of class! We were a little early thanks to Madrid's speedy Metro system but soon settled in with the rest of the class for our initial orientation.
Choosing a seat!

This session prepped us for our Spanish culture class designed so we don't look like American assholes. In order to better acclimatize, we have been advised to lay off the following:

1. Internet (oops)
2. American TV (like I'm giving up Teen Wolf), and
3. Hanging out with the other Wash U kids (all of whom I met today).

So we'll see how that goes. Also I learned that in Spain, they say "Wee-Fee" instead of "Wi-fi." Who knew?

Tonight, we go on a tour of the city center with Ramiro--the program director and professor for culture class--and the rest of the Wash U group. Then home for dinner, and more walking tours in the morning!
