MORE VISITORS!
Madrid truly is Home! It's so nice coming home from a trip and feeling like we're home, knowing the city, feeling comfortable, being able to relax, and be able to take visitors to all our favorite spots!
On Tuesday, Liza, my friend in Chi o, who is studying in Paris came to visit with her two roommates! I went to my morning class and ditched mads for our afternoon class. I met up with Liza and her roommates at Plaza Mayor and we walked around. Then I took them to San Miguel Market, for a quick snack! Next, we walked over to Retiro Park to walk around! Because Liza and I had so much catching up to do I didn't notice how much walking we we're doing as we chatted away... lots and lots of steps... little did I know one of her roommates DOESN'T LIKE WALKING???????? I was confused by this. We headed home to regroup and meet up with Carolyn! We went to San Anton for 2 for 1 drinks! Mad's met up with us here after class and we headed to Circulo for the sunset! A beautiful view, more catching up, and refreshing drinks made for the perfect start to our evening! We then went to El Tigre to show them our typical spot, for our goblets of vodka and yummy, free croquettes! We headed to karaoke after, only to find a line of 15 year olds.. not kidding. So, we decided to have a night cap at 100 Montiditos, the everything is a dollar spot! After a relatively late night, we all slept in. They showered and packed up and I took them to a cheap, delicious, traditional, deli shop. They got massive ham and cheese sandwiches and then we walked down fuen carral and Gran Via going in and out of shops! I had to go home to finish a project, so we said our goodbyes, as they were headed to Barcelona later that night.
The rest of the week was pretty typical, getting so used to our weekly routine around here. We strayed from our typical quinoa or lentil meal, and have started making salmon which is so sophisticated and DELISH! Other than that... work out, school, and chill...
NEXT STOP... SEVILLE!
XOXO,
