Some things I forgot to post

All these random gummies are really popular here. But it's weird, they take like all kinds of typical gummy candy we have and like mix them all together and put them in a bag. But when I opened mine... I found these....

Today, our lovely country made the front page of their newspaper with a very good response ration of these people I think.

In plaza mayor, they are repairing or remodeling the outside so instead of just putting up a tarp, they put up a tarp with a picture of a wallon it. I thought it was kinda funny but also a good idea. So the left side is not real.

And in plaza mayor, I always forget to take a picture, is the fat Spider-Man. I got it at a bad angle so I'll need to take another picture. But you can see fat Spider-Man and his little statue..

And the men that se the illegal stuff running/hiding from the police.

We went shopping in an area called Goya. This was just along our walk there and our food. 

I got my foreigners card

Lol...

It's the warmest day so far... 70 degrees! So I'm laying in the park trying to get some sun! 

I found this hotel today lol "the northern Florida hotel" 

And then there was this puppy in a bag on the metro. I sat down next to him. Her name is Jaki and she's 6 months old. 

The next Museum

Today we went to the Museo del Prado. 

It was much more interesting with lots of famous paintings inside like from El Greco and Goya. I'm not allowed to take pictures inside of the paintings....

The picture of this church doesn't do it justice for how pretty it really is.

And it's a pretty walk to the Museos, it's near Retiro park.

And this looking down at the museum before we got there and then on our way back.

Just some pictures from my walk to get my transportation  card...

The palace...

And I saw this sign for a church here 

And here is a picture inside the metro station. They do not all look like this at all. This is a really big one that has the metro and the train and buses. 

Two weeks and no posts

???

Mueso de Reina Sofía

My roommate and I went to one of the museums today, it was okay, very political. But the most famous painting by Picasso was there. You aren't allowed to take pictures of it... 

A little late...

I passed and received my TEFL certificate 😅 finally!! Here is me pretending to teach lol 

And then we all went out to celebrate for dinner at a local bar.

This was just a little of what we got...

This is the Spanish tortilla my roomie and I were trying to make.... This was the best one I had..

And then yesterday two of my roomies and I tried to ride bikes around the city but that did not go so well.... So we walked to Starbucks together. To have a Starbucks "para aquí" looks like this...

And then today I started my Spanish clases..., 😥 

Oh an just casually a dog in the supermarket....

Grocery shopping

So to go a non expensive grocery store, we have to walk a little... Today we went to a place called Día. To get there we have to go through Plaza Mayor. It is just like a big square. Those are all people's homes. But they are really small and like studios and cost around 1 million for each.

 This is a picture out of one of the exits..

And this their version of bacon pizza.

And delicious pizza 

Today... My roommate and I (who both do not know how to cook well) decided to try and make a very Spanish traditional dish called a tortilla. It's nothing like what we think a tortilla. It's kinda like a quiche. But with potatoes. 

This was ours...

This is what it's supposed to look like...

Lol

Here are my roommates. Sultan, Thayse, and Luke. We love each other haha. We all went out together last night, it was fun and we didn't get back until 6 in the morning. 😳

You can buy these little things anywhere. With a straw like with those Capri sun drinks we would drink as kids.
