Spain Don't Know About Us

Well, kids, not much to report today, either. Maybe that means we're finally settling in for a day-to-day routine? Or perhaps not taking full advantage of being abroad. Either way, we were on campus til almost 6, which, when you account for the commute, doesn't leave a whole lot of time for gallivanting.

Looks like we won't be able to take Illustration after all, so we'll have to think of some way to keep it up on our own. On the other hand, we will, space allowing, be taking Franco's Spain through Literature and Film, and an opera seminar focusing on Death in Venice. So that's alright.

Grabbing a quick snack!

We did Zumba with Riva and Alexandra, and there was this weird line-dancing bit that had everyone running into each other while trying to grapevine and salsa-swivel simultaneously, and I swear it was the hardest I've laughed the whole time we've been here. Which has been over a month, can you believe it?

Since we didn't really come across any new scenery today, we took a quick pic with one of Madrid's MANY Rodilla Restaurants. The ubiquitous Rodilla is famous for cheap, crust-free sandwiches, decent (tiny) coffees, granizados (Spanish slushies), and a name that translates to "Knee." Some dude's name, I guess.

Bacon Cheeseburgers for dinner with Cookies n Cream Haagen Dazs for dessert. Feels like home.
