Our Neighborhood



I think I can safely say we are now settled in our apartment (though being settled in Madrid will take much more time). We're ready to begin our training tomorrow to earn our TEFL certificates. There was a temperature drop this weekend and we were able to explore our part of town without the extensive heat.

As we explored more of the areas in the vicinity of our apartment, we saw some great apartments and small side streets. Even at night, you feel pretty safe around here. There's always people around, except for in the afternoon when everyone's taking a nap. Here's one of my favorite shots of an apartment complex in one of the side streets.

We finally headed on over to a HipoEuro. It's basically a shady Chinese store that sells goods really cheap. It's a great place to get most of your household goods. Anyway, we came across this shirt and felt it needed to be shared with the world.

We probably won't be able to blog as frequently for the next few weeks because we will be in class from 9am to 7pm. You might see some posts venting about long classes:P.
