Water Parks and The Amazing Race

There was a car bombin in the Basque region of Spain on Friday which caused an interupption in the palns of some of the student here who wanted to go to San Sabastien. Well anyways on Saturday the 20th, we went to the water park to have some good American fun instead of see sites. To get to the "huge" water part we had to take the train, Madrid subway aka "metro", and a bus to get there which took us all two hours. It was a crazy bus ride on the way back because this Spanish girl was playing American music and everyone got excited, even these British guys on their bachelor party. So when Taylor Swift started playing you know half the Americans on the bus started singing even the Spanish folks, it was insane. It felt like we had to compete in the amazing race because there was a big hype in making it on time to the water park so we could have fun and when we had to take the Madrid Metro it was go go go go , the subway wasn't going to wait on you and of course shady characters, so everyone needed to watch their purse/backpack/pockets. It was really interesting if I had to take the Metro by myself I would miss every single stop, well not everyone. I felt like since I've been here I have mastered train stations and how they work. Also, when I arrived here I spoke about 4mph and now about 20-25 mph. We have exams today and tomorrow, Necessito estudiar.
