España



El Palacio Royal

Ok Everyone I am the absolute worst at blogging but I figure it is better late than never right? I have so much to tell you all but it so hard to remember everything that we have done this week. I wish you were all here with me so you could see everything because the pictures do not do this place justice.

The exact center of Spain

My lifetime goal has been set at living in Spain. The city, food, people, language are all amazing. I am in LOVE! I have somewhat learned my way into Madrid and now there is no going back. We have spent the entire past weekend in Madrid and there is still so much to see. The city is breathtaking. There is so much history behind all of the buildings and the entire city we will definitely be going back for more.

Food we will be eating in Heaven no joke . . . YUM!!

The Spaniards know how to COOK. We have discovered El Mercado de San Miguel (I’m not sure this is a good thing or not. . . we will see what the scale says at the end of the trip!). It is this huge market with different vendors and they have the most amazingly delicious food there. We have enjoyed churros, chocolate truffles, tomates con queso, pollo, pizza and I’m sure more to come. 
  

These guys scared me so bad haha but the street performers are awesome here


This trip has made me aware of how much I absolutely HATE the subway. Our only option unfortunately is to take the subway and this has been quite the challenge for me. I cannot keep my balance at all and I am constantly falling. Not to mention that they are packed full. I didn’t know so many people could fit in such a small space, but trust me they can.  

 So far we have visited El Palacio Royal, El Museo del Traje, and of course the real Madrid stadium- but no sightings of Ronaldo yet, I’m still holding out hope!

This was my ticket to Ronaldo's heart haha
