Mar 18th - Mar 19th: Day Forty Five

I managed to sleep in today! It was soo nice! After I woke up and got myself together Mod and I headed to Sol to walk around and shop a little. I managed to get some things for people back home and I can cross three more people off of my list. I also bought myself some Spanish workbooks at a store while in Sol. I'm hoping they'll help me especially since we've been using some of the pages in the one book in class. Once my midterm is over on Tuesday I'm going to start working on a few things in the books. I also needed to get myself a bigger bag than the ones I have. When I went to Barcelona they didn't cut it and I have another weekend trip coming up. It's a really nice bag, too!

After shopping Mod and I came 'home' to relax a little. I attempted to study, which didn't work out too well, and then we left to walk around the park. It was a nice day out today, but a little cold. We walked around the park for a little, sat down for a soda, then walked some more. We are going to go back tomorrow to go into one of the buildings they have there. Then return 'home' to eat lunch before heading out to a different park here in Madrid (not sure which one yet). Somewhere in there I'm going to study too.

Well, as promised I have the pictures from yesterday! =)

XOXO,

The Royal Palace!

Above the door are the two kings who built the palace to the left of the clock. On the right are their queens.

The 'Grand Staircase'

The throne room (I got yelled at right as I was taking this picture.... It's blurry cause I jumped when the lady started talking to me, haha).
