Like college students in a beer factory..


So, for our final excursion with our traveling class, we visited Grupo Mahou San Miguel which is the leading producer of beer in spain.  After a quick tour of the facilities and the factory, we were lead to the private pub within the factory.  We were given 25 minutes, and it was still only 11:30 in the morning, but this seemed to only inspire our efforts.
  25 minutes of free beer and tapas got us all in the right state of mind for the second leg of our journey to Alcala de Henares. This town is home to one of the oldest universities and also the home to the writer of Don Quixote. The university is supposedly the model after which USD was built, but I didn't see too much of a resemblance.
