Holidays!

Hello!

I just thought I'd write a short little post because I probably won't be able to write anything again until Easter. We have our spring/Easter break this week and next week, yes that is a full TWO weeks!! plus if you count Thursday- Sunday of the previous week its 18 days of no class. This is the time we are all traveling a ton. My friends are going to Rome, Greece, Budapest, Switzerland, Prague, France, I don't even know. We all seem to be crossing Europe over the next three weeks each on our own adventure. My roommate and I will be going to Helsinki, Tallin, and San Sebastian. Really random, I know. We will be visiting my uncle in Helsinki, Finland for a week where we'll take a ferry to Tallin, Estonia for 2 days (I know, who goes there? totally awesome!). When we get back we are going to Pais Vasco, which is in the north of Spain, to San Sebastian where we have a hostel right on the beach. A nice, relaxing vacation.

For the past couple days we've just been chilling in Madrid as everyone starts to leave on their vacations. Actually right now there are only 4 of us left in Madrid, and after tomorrow only 3. I'm taking this time to go back and do some of the touristy things again, like go to the Prado and walk through the city. We've also been spending a lot of time at the park because it's been soooo nice finally. Even though it's been so warm Spain is a funny country. People don't wear shorts, and they like to wear their winter jackets when its 70F outside. I'm definitely getting used to all the stares I get when I walk outside in shorts and a tshirt from Spaniards who probably think I'm crazy (but really they are and they are going to overheat and pass out, so ha). Never ceases to entertain me.

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter and I will update you all about my fabulous break when we return. Besos!!
