LAST NIGHT IN SPAIN

We concluded our visit to Spain last night with a super meal at the restaurant La Giralda IV, located near the Retiro park. I have to say that this has been a fantastic group of young people to work with, and on behalf of all our staff--Encarni, Eduardo and myself--thanks to everyone for all their support. Best wishes to all,

Grant

IN MADRID

We are in the final days of our trip now. For us here, it is hard to believe almost an entire month has passed. We spent our last few hours in Cádiz together telling stories, eating ice-cream, (trying) to pack and fit everything in our suitcases.

Our first activity in Madrid was a visit to Santiago Bernabeú, the home pitch of Real Madrid (best soccer team in the 20th Century). Later, the students rested before going to the Plaza Santa Ana for some free time and dinner. Today, we go to Toledo, a fascinating city with a rich history.
