Weekend in Madrid

by littlesarahbigworld

Recently a lot of people have been advising me to get out and enjoy the Springtime while it lasts, because apparently Springtime in Madrid is super short-lived–by the time you notice the weather’s warmed up, you’ve already begun the steady descent into the hell that is Summertime Madrid.

Now, people make a lot of blanket-type statements about Madrid/Spain that later turn out to be just opinions, but this little tidbit has already proven itself to be true. This, combined with the fact that I already have JUST UNDER TWO MONTHS LEFT, has inspired me to take advantage of the fair weather and get out and about as much as possible.

Also, I realize that I post a lot about my feeeeelings here and very little about day-to-day happenings. So here’s what I did last weekend: passed the time pleasantly eating delicious things with friends.

Jane was back in town

And even though I’m starting to feel anxious about returning home (ch-ch-ch-ch-changes), I can honestly say that I’m making the most of what little time I have left here.

I mean, two picnics in one weekend, c’mon.
