The other day, a small group of us made our way to Madrid! We may have gotten on the wrong train on the way there AND on the way back... but we still made it! We decided to explore the Botanical Garden and take in the huge sight, otherwise known as my future home, El Palacio Royal! Wow, it was so huge and intricate, I was in awe.
The next day we headed back into Madrid, without any problem, and went to El Prado and a cathedral across the street. First of all, the architecture here is already breath taking, then you add the artwork to it? Geez. There is no way I would've appreciated the art as much if I hadn't taken a painting class my senior year... Just thinking about how I struggled so much to mix colors and make things actually look real? These artists amazed me! From Rembrandt to Velasquez, I saw and fell in love with almost everything I saw.
So, not only am I a princess and an art lover, but I am also officially a student! Classes are officially in session and I still hate doing homework! haha I am so grateful for the opportunity I have to be studying Spanish though... I have already made leaps and bou
nds towards improvement! Immersion is seriously the only way to learn a language. Why haven't I done this sooner?!
So. yeah. I am definitely so in love with España.
xoxo,
la princesa
