Beach after class? I can get used to this life.

Caroline, me, Jennifer, and Elsie with our delicious gofres. I'm sure this will become
a regular outing.


Apparently Mackenzie has a rule: she take a picture for you, then she takes a picture of herself with your camera.

We didn't do anything picture worthy this day, but of course, since it's a picture a day in Spain, I had to take SOME picture! So here's Smokey in Spain.

This is the banner from the festival of the Virgen de los Desamparados. The entire thing was actually made of flowers.

Jennifer, Mackenzie, Elsie, and I on top of the tower of the Catedral de Valencia. It was 273 steps up, but it was worth it! The view was awesome!

The science museum, aquarium, and other buildings that are well known for their architecture. I'm glad I had such a wonderful camera that has such a great zoom!

The view from the top of the tower. This is where I live for 6 weeks!

Windmills on the way to Valencia

La Plaza de la Virgen. This plaza is very close to our dorm. It is beautiful! There is always a lot of activity going on. This was taken during the festival for the Virgen de los Desemparados. It is essentially the Virgin of Guadalupe for the city of Valencia. She is also the patron saint of Valencia.

The very center of Spain. Whenever distance is measured, it is measured in km away from this exact spot. How cool!

El Museo Del Prado: One of the most well known art museums in all of Spain. I saw many paintings that I had studied before in Spain classes, including my favorites: Las Meninas, El 2 de Mayo, y El 3 de Mayo
