Madrid!

Well after a long wait, here I am in Spain it has finally happened. Traveling over here wasnt to bad the night flight was good and I had a good time asking the British flight attendants about the UK. Despite being really tired I stayed awake to meet all the USAC kids on the tour and there are a lot of us.
We are at the Hotel Regina in Madrid which is pretty nice and the street is pretty posh. It is cold here like really cold but mangeable. We had a nice dinner of a like spinich enchilada chicken and potatoes and a kiwi for desert. We had all the informationabout Madrid explained to us and it looks like it will be a fun fun trip. It is a mixture of guided tours and free time so its really a good set up for college age kids. Tomorrow were going to see the Royal Palace and Prado museum. I cant wait to actually go inside and investigate an actual european fancy palace. Im sure the opulence will be extremely humbling. Then the prado is basically the best art musuem after the Louvre so I think it will be really culturally enlightening to check out. I hope by tomorrow Im rested enough to check out Madrid's famous night life!
