¿Dónde estamos?

Today we had our orientation at the Universidad Antonio de Nebrija. The school was pretty small, but it should be interesting! I have an Art class from 11:30-1:30 MTW and then on Thursday we meet at the Prado Museum for class. My food and culture class meets only once or twice a week at various locations, tomorrow we're meeting at the Ham Factory where we're going to sample different types of ham (I think!). They served us lunch at Antonio de Nebrija and served us sangria with it :)

After class Abby and I went exploring to Retiro Park, which is a huge park about a half hour walk from our place. We stopped in and out of little shops and made it there but it's kind of a cloudy day so the pictures aren't that great:

Welllll on our way back from Retiro Park we decided to take a different route... and got lost multiple times so we asked people "Donde estamos?" which means "Where are we?" People helped but they were laughing, as were we hahah We stumbled upon "El Cortes Ingles" which is the huge department store.. which we managed to get lost in hahah Today sure has been an adventure! We're doing a tapas bar crawl tonight with everyone from Purdue. We meet at a Metro station at 11, it'll be our first night out in downtown Madrid!! Thank god my class is later :)

Adios!! :)
