Mas Madrid y el Pub

Today (after class) we went to Madrid again! We went to the Museo Reina Sofia, which is a modern art museum! And, like el Prado, we get in for FREE with our student ID cards from the University of Alcala de Henares! It was awesome, highlights including Miro, Picasso, and Dali! The painting "Guernica" by Picasso was my favorite. We've learned about it so many times in Spanish classes, and to finally see it?! WOW. I didn't take a photo (don't know if you could) but I'm attaching one from the internet so you can see which one I'm talking about. Then later this evening, my roommate Rachel and I met up with our friends from the intercambio! Our friend's name is Soledad, and we were with her, her husband, and two other of her friends. So they're like middle aged. We were in a little Irish pub. They practiced English, we practiced Spanish. The pub also had a trivia competition going on, and our little team got second place! It was such a fun night and we're glad to have made such great friends.
