A blast from the past

It was a fun few days as four of our friends from Reading descended upon Madrid and back into our lives for another round of adventure. Unfortunately, like all school time visits there is no perfect time and we also had assignments due which invaded our chance to spend more time with our visitors. So while we were in class (some of us), they headed into Madrid and saw the sights – likely more than I have at this point. But in the evenings, we managed to spare some time to talk, laugh and drink some wine.

It is always sad leaving good friends for an indefinite amount of time, as I mentioned back in December when I was leaving Reading, so it was really great to see Chris, Ken, Delphine and Vergine again. I would like to get a chance to travel a bit this summer and plan to try and visit some of my other friends from Reading who are now more distributed around Europe.
