How was the weather this week?:

When I arrived in Spain in January, I had a preconcieved notion that it was going to be extremely warm because of its geographical location. While Spain is definitely one of the warmer European countries ,it was still really cold in January! In the mornings I was freezing, so I had to buy a large fuzzy blanket and fuzzy socks to keep me warm through the night. 

What animals did I see this week? :

When I was Madrid, I saw a few dogs and one stray cat that lived in the botanical gardens that was often fed by strangers!

What was the coolest thing I saw in nature this week?:

My first week in Madrid I visited a nearby town called Toledo that sits 500 meters above sea level on a plateau. I didn't know anything about the town prior to visiting, but once I saw the town I was instantly mesmerized. While Madrid is stunning in its own right, it is a city packed to the brim with buildings and people, just like Manhattan. Toledo gave me a break, immediately transporting me to ancient times once I set foot there.
