San Francisco el Grande

     Evan Cope woke up to the sound of Evan Langebeck and Matt horsing around. We enjoyed our breakfast in the hotel, although we sat next to a guy who could not get any food into his mouth. We were going to the San Francisco el Grande, and David was excited because he was really interested in 13th-century architecture. David was so excited that he ran so fast that he accidentally ran into a small kiosk selling t-shirts and hats. The lady working at the kiosk was so nice that she gave us free hats.
     Once we finally get to the cathedral David was disappointed due to it not being as interesting as the Milan Cathedral.  Matt ran around pestering the security guards as Evan Langebeck admired the convent of Jesús y María. When we were looking at the Cathedral we saw a group of girls try and carve their names into the side of the building, we got a good demonstration of the security. Two of the girls ran as the overweight guard went lumbering after them. When we finally decided it was time for lunch, Evan Cope was sad that we had to leave the cathedral because he thought it was finally starting to get interesting.

The pizza we got at Telepizza

     After hours of looking for a place to eat, we finally decided on Telepizza. We all decided to share the Carbonara Gourmet Queso. It was a delicious pizza that you could never get in the US for the same price.  After lunch, we all decided to go back to the hotel room to watch TV and pretend to understand what it means.  We were watching "Jose Made In Spain," which is a show about a guy what shows people how to make food traditional to Spain.

     After a few hours of that, we decided to go down to Casa Lucas, which was a good dinner and a great night.  When we were done eating, we went back to our hotel and watched TV in our separate rooms. We all ran back out and saw Langebeck carrying Matt out of bed. Matt was still sleeping and the only thing we heard of him was some extremely loud snoring. We all walked downstairs to set him up at the top of the stairs. We then woke him he rolled up on his left side, but to his surprise, he rolled down the stairs. Matt ran up the stairs yelling and cursing at Langebeck and swearing he will get his revenge. Everyone but Langebeck fell fast asleep that night because he was afraid of what Matt would do.
