Old is Better

---

Went to orientation again today. I love my Spanish class, the teacher is great! Went out for Tapas with friends in La Plaza de Sagrados Corazones. They were delicious. My favorite was mushroom with mayo and cheese melted ontop of tostada! SO good. We also had a walking tour of Old Madrid. It was amazing! We saw the Royal Palace, Madrid's Cathedral, and Plaza Mayor. The tiny streets are fun to walk through. We went out to a cafe after and got hot chocolate. Maria made whole wheat pasta with salsa de tomate. But you have to have some meat, so there was also some beefish side. I declare that NY get a lesson on how to run a subway system from Metro Madrid. There is a train every 5 minutes, and it is so easy to navigate!!!

NYU in Madrid
This is our courtyard. There is no advertisement of the school from the outside. In fact we have to enter a code to get into the building.
