Sorry that I haven’t written much since I got to Spain, I have been super busy with meeting my host family, going to classes and exploring Valencia. The only thing I want to do when I get back is sleep. Which usually leaves me trying to do my homework in the morning before class. I should know better but that hasn’t stopped me yet.
Madrid and Toledo weren’t super exciting for me. We went on the most boring walking tour ever invented in Madrid and then went to an Art museum. The walking tour might have been more interesting if I could understand the guide’s spanish better but I don’t think so. He mostly walked us around and then asked us what the different buildings had in common and what was different. (I understood this part) He had a serious thing for remarking “This building has columns, this building has this kind of windows!” and so on and so on. The Art museum was cool though. Same guide but I just basically ignored him and looked at all of Piscasso’s paintings. Weird shit but fun. :)
The second night in Madrid, my roommate and I decided to hit a club and see if it lived up to it’s hype. It does. It cost 20 euros to get in but the place was crazy so it was worth it. It was seven stories high and each floor had a different drink and different music playing. We started out by climbing the stairs all the way to the seventh floor and then made our way down to the mojito floor. After dancing there for a while, we eventually made it back down to the bottom dance floor. I wish I had a picture of this floor. It was huge! In front of the dance floor there was a stage with professional dancers and then in the middle of the floor this fog machine came down from the ceiling and would randomly douse all of the dancers. I danced so much that I broke my shoes! :(
