Best Friends in Europe
- Pounce on Maddy and Agata as soon as they step off the bus (literally--Monica hurt her tooth on Maddy's face mid-hug).
- Wish Claire Paterson was there to spend the time with us.
- Sit and eat mounds of tapas.
- Walk around the city with ice cream.
- Experience all the different types of Spanish nightlife: casual, medium, and all-out raging (no pouting when everyone else wants to go home early at 4 in the morning).

- Siesta ("Sleeping" implies 6-8 hours of REM cycles, which wasn't penciled into our schedule).
- Play and eat Principe cookies by the river.
- Yell at creepy dreadlocked gypsies in Polish and English (Agata's last name is Siwinski) who were not invited to play with us at the river. No you may not touch the pretty girls.
- Sit and drink Agua de Sevilla at a flamenco show.
- Break up the multiple bar brawls Maddy starts.
- Pretend to be guests at the Edward Jones conference at the super swanky Hotel Alfonso; "So what did you take from the seminar? I've just got to diversify my investments. I'm calling Albert this instant."
- Bluff way into front of the long line at la discoteca: Succeed.
- Dance, dance, dance.
- Siesta.
- Exist (highly underrated...existing is the cheapest way to enjoy life and each other).
- Sit and eat churros con chocolate while watching the rain.
- Walk around flamenco dress shops and touch everything.
- Catcall back at all the Spanish men (they have no idea how to react).
- Siesta.
- Fall in love with La Alcázar (see previous blog post for more).

- Hog the outdoor bungalow at Hotel Alfonso for two hours, whilst drunk off of the sun, giggling, and the free potato chips the staff brings after you've overstayed your welcome (sit and eat...for free).

Pretty dresses! Let's touch ALL OF THEM. |
- Look for somewhere else to sit and eat.
- Find new kebab place--sit, eat, watch Arabic music videos in very authentic kebab establishment.
- Water fight in the street (Monica was tired of carrying a water bottle, and Maddy's face looked too dry).

Sitting/eating/playing in our bungalow at Hotel Alfonso: this picture sums up our weekend perfectly. |
The weekend ended at another bus station. It would have been sad to see such great friends go--but hey, we're going to have Sit, Eat, Play: Italian Style in a little over a week. Thank you Agata and Madeline for such a wonderful weekend...see you soon!
