pretty well. I only understand about half, but I am getting better!
When I got in, I took a shower and then took a siesta. After that
amazing nap, I went by the Retiro, the big park in Madrid. The Prado
borders the Retiro. Madrid is really beautiful.
I am definitely feeling my Americaness. I eat with one hand, although
I am trying to eat with two. The kissing on both cheeks keeps
catching me off guard but I´m getting better. My hair straightener
was an epic failure. It works, but it gets about as hot as if I
licked it. Fail.
We had dinner at 10 last night...No, you didn´t read that wrong...10!
The granola bars are already coming in handy.
I just went out to breakfast [got delicious French toast!]. I have
plans to meet a friend for lunch at three [I know!][ have a granola
bar in my purse]. I am trying to figure out what to do today. I´ll
probably go to the Prado this morning, and maybe the Reina Sophia in
the afternoon.
The weather is nice, about 55 degrees, but everyone here is bundled
up in winter coats, hats and scarves. I am wearing a sweater and
burning up. Oh, to be a Parnell.
