So last week my school took us to Barcelona, paid for our transportation on the bullet train and put us up in a 4 star hotel in the center of the city. They call it a "traveling class", but I call it an excuse for me to take a one week free vacation to party with my friends in Barcelona, o yeah and they paid for 2 meals a day, breakfast and a lunch or dinner, drinks included.
The class lasted Tue.-Fri., but they gave us the option to return on sunday, which everyone chose, and scheduled our return tickets accordingly. Barcelona has ridiculous night life, from Shoko and Catwalk at the beach, to Chupitos and Piano Bar in the city, we went out hard every night and woke up early to a groggy tour of some really cool places. 
As much as it was a rough wake up it was worth it to really get around and see the sights the city had to offer, instead of waking up at 3 pm to get lunch and hangng out till the party started again, as I would have done otherwise. We saw the Port of Barcelona, Gaudy's famous Cathedral La Sangrada Familia, and took a tour and wine tasting at Cordiniu Winery.
Barcelona is to Madrid as LA is to NY, and I love it there. I will definitely be back.
