I'm back!

Hello everyone! I'm back from my study abroad trip to Spain albeit a little early. The country was beautiful, the people were wonderful, and I learned a lot about a great many things. And my history class was pretty awesome too. I think it was one of the best classes I've taken in the course of many, many years in school because the professor taught me a new way of thinking about the events of the past.
 
A recap of some of the sights we enjoyed:

Oh look, the new king and queen!
 
We arrived the day before the coronation.
We got up early and got a spot on the parade route right at the edge of the barricade. Super exciting.
 

Famous sites...The Puerta de Alcala in Madrid

Over-looking the royal palace and the cathedral in Madrid
 
Don Quijote's windmills along the road to LaMancha
 
The mosque/cathedral in Cordoba
 
I am also now addicted to lattes, as in Spain they are excellent and very cheap. This is a problem. But figuring out how to get a latte fix that tastes like it's Spanish and is priced like it too should be an adventure! Any suggestions?

Now back to decluttering, learning to spend less and be happy where I am in life.
