An Epic Trip to Spain

During my Toussaint (All-Saints) holiday, I went to Spain with around 15 other people from my Northwestern program in Paris. It was absolutely incredible. We went sight-seeing all day, ate delicious food, and went out every night. Now I just wish I didn't have to return to school and the giant papers/finals that await me in the next month...

Highlights include:
MADRID

-Plaza Mayor
-Sangria
-the gardens
-my first stay in a student hostel
-lunch and dinner with great friends

SEVILLA



-the most beautiful palace and cathedral I have ever seen
-paddle boating
-watching parts of the election
-walking up at 5am to hear election results
-cheap food

BARCELONA
-an incredible (and cheap) apartment with 7 other girls
-making dinners (actually I didn't cook but I ate delicious food)
-cheap wine
-Barcelona nightlife
-a gondola ride
-the fortress overlooking the entire city
-the deserted remains from the 1992 Barcelona Olympics
-water and beach
-parc guell
