Weekend fun

This weekend, we went to the Reina Sofia Museum where Picasso's famous "Guernica" painting is held. They actually allowed pictures to be taken inside, without the flash of course. This was a great experience because I had studied this painting in my high school Spanish class, and it was really interesting to see it in person. We also strolled through the Caso de Campo park, which has a theme park, lake, and the best zoo in Europe. It was so nice out that we decided to take a little row boat out on the lake!
