Okay so I know I haven't exactly kept you updated, but here in Spain we're constantly on the go. We didn't have any internet connection in Madrid (we're now in Granada), so I will start by telling you about the adventures in the capital of Spain. Our hostel was actually a lot better than what I expected. The air conditioning didn't exactly work the way we wanted, but we survived. Some of the main attractions that we visited include the Plaza Mayor, Madrid's Palace, the Prado Museum, the palace's park, the Real Madrid Soccer (futbol?) Stadium, and many more. The city is beautiful and provides a lot of good chances for well-taken photography. I've been able to learn about the city's culture while also gaining an intense amount of knowledge in photography. We've also had many encounters that wouldn't typically happen in Houston, but they all gave us something to laugh about. The city is very lively and people surround the streets. The nightlife lasts until about 7 a.m., making it difficult to fall asleep, but we managed. No one really eats breakfast here, hence the bread rolls we're given every morning, but they eat big lunches and late dinners. The food is interesting, but not bad at all. While in Madrid we left for a day by train to Toledo. The town was a lot smaller and by a lot, i mean A LOT smaller. The commotion doesn't even compare to Madrid's, but it was a nice quaint town. So to wrap it all up, our time in Madrid was great. The photos came out well and the city was fun to see. Well sorry for the big delay! But I'll be sure to keep you updated from now on! Adios!
