Tapas for Thanksgiving

I was in Madrid, Spain last week for a teacher's conference. It was great. The conference sessions were really informative, and I had a chance to go to the Prado and the Reina Sofia museum. I love Spanish art, so I think the Prado has been my favorite art museum so far. Plus I got to see Guernica at the other one. It was way bigger than I expected.

Speaking Spanish was wonderful too. It was such a relief to know the language, to communicate, and to understand!

One of the best things was going out to a tapas bar for dinner on Thanksgiving. We had great food, although my paella had what looked like a whole baby chicken in it. Plus, it's a fun memory to eat tapas for Thanksgiving dinner in Madrid.
