I'm going to Spain and Italy!!!

Friday after classes my friends and I met up and firmed up our travel plans which is very exciting!!! The first week we will go from Berlin-Milan-Florence-Venice (we will only spend a couple hours in Milan, it was just the cheapest airport to fly into) then the second week we will be going to Barcelona, Madrid, Seville (maybe), and possibly a day trip to Toledo!! On our way home we will stop for dinner in Paris!!! Me and 1 other girl are getting Eurorail passes (which is why we can hit so many cities and have dinner in Paris) but another girl is flying because she is only traveling for the first week (then she is going to Russia with a class). I'm super pumped because although I will not see Rome which I really wanted to see, Spain and Italy will be AMAZING!

Friday night, after a quick dinner back home, we all met back up for our night of Danish fun!!! First we went to my friend's house b/c she lives in this cute little town with straw roofs to drink Carlsberg and play Danish board games (Monopoly in Danish is surprisingly difficult!) and then we started our long trek to Vega, a super famous nightclub here. UNFORTUNATELY, we got very lost going to Vega/I think we got the wrong address or directions because we couldn't find it, so then we just went to Heidi's Pub which is famous for having tons of different beers on tap! We spent most of the night there which was a lot of fun, and we left there at about 4:30am (which is apparently normal here). We really wanted to find a bakery so we could buy fresh pastries, but of course they weren't open so we settled for the next best (and I'm using the term "best" very loosely) thing, McDonald's French fries!

I finally got home around 6 and went straight to bed! I woke up around noon, had lunch with the fam, then went to work out at the local gym. It is a tiny facility but nice enough! The only problem is that of course all of the weights are in Kilos so I almost died when I nonchalantly grabbed the "16" weights (about 32lbs - too much for me!). After working out, I went home, showered, and we had dinner! Tonight I think I'm going out with the people from my study tour class!
