Day 2


Had orientation and at the CEA global campus then walked around town. While walking we saw a park where a lot of protestors were. They were camped out and some of them had even built permanent living spaces for themselves. They were protesting the government in Spain and had been for some time now. it was a sight to see. There were mainly a lot of hippies there. No surprise. They had dreads and raggedy clothes. It was pretty surprising that Spain let them do that. They really made the square look really bad. They had spray painted on most of the statues and walls. It looked like it could have been a pretty place otherwise. 




This guy had actually built an entire tree house. Pretty impressive. He was taking a siesta when I took this. 


The statues had things added to them like signs, spray paint, and rags.


By the park I saw this huge line of mopeds. It seems like everyone in Spain drives a moped. There are constantly lines of these parked on the sides of streets any where you go. 



For lunch we were lame and got Burger King. Although the differences were interesting. Unlike america this food aint cheap. We paid 15 euro for two meals which comes out to 21 dollars. They charge an extra dollar just to get fries with your meal. Lame. As you can see in my picture the chicken sandwich I usually order in America, the number 9, is a lot smaller than it's American comparison. (Now looking at this pic though I can see I have small hands lol.) It tasted just as good though.
