Why Madrid? There are many reasons Madrid would make a great educational trip for our Spanish club. For starters, Madrid is a city of great importance and historical wonder. It is Spain’s capital and has many areas and buildings that we have learned about in our studies this year. Not to mention, it’s extravagant social life and the beauty of its culture and history. In Madrid, we could visit many historic museums and eat at many authentic restaurants such as Botin Restaurant, the worlds oldest restaurant offering authentic Mediterranean cuisine. This is one of the many aspects of Madrid we have learned about this year and getting to see it in person would be leaps and bounds beyond what we can experience in the class room.

Education? Madrid not only has an enormous array of adventure and entertainment within it, it has centuries of history and knowledge just waiting for eager students like us to absorb it. Taking this trip to Madrid would not only be an extremely enjoyable experience but a time well spent and it would enhance the classroom experience and provide a lifetime of memories for us students.
