The Day's Events!

Wednesday was a busy busy day. I woke up around 6:30 in order to pack up and meet Manelay and the Jefe in the Lobby of our hotel by 7:30. I had to pack up all of my things because today was move in day!!! We packed about six suitcases in a small taxi and we were off to 140 La Gasca- my new home :)

As I may have mentioned before, you have to walk up seven flights of stairs to get to our floor. So carrying my 60 pound or more suitcases up the stairs was not a fun experience. After a hard work out, all of our bags were up and we were off to school.

We had Digital Marketing today. The teacher is entertaining. It is really amazing to think how far we have come in the area of technology and multimedia marketing over the last few years...

After class Manelay and I went directly to Zara Home. We figured that the prices combined with the cab ride there and back were about the same as those from Ikea. We measured our bed sizes before we left, but soon realized that that was no help when it came to picking out sheet sizes. An employee saw that we were confused so he came over and helped us all out... To further demonstrate just how confused we were... Manelay and I almost bought children's sized sheets that would have covered half of our bed!

The walk back was pretty tough. Towels, sheets, pillows, and comforters aren't exactly light when you have to carry them all at once through the city. Not to mention another trip up Mt. Everest (the 7 flights of stairs)

After we made our beds we decided to grab something to eat. We ended up in what we called a Man's Club because there were about a dozen old men packed around a bar drinking and socializing. We sat in the back corner of the restaurant and had amazing sandwiches that were fairly inexpensive...

A trip to the papeleria, starbuck's, una siesta later, and a couple hours of homework later...

We are about to job about two miles to McDonald's for a sundae :)
