Don Quixote siting!

Today I went to Alcala de Henares. Alcala is a suburb of Madrid that is the birthplace of Spain's literary hero - Miguel de Cervantes. The city also houses  Spain's second oldest university.

This week is a celebration of Cervantes  and we got to enjoy the party, including food and craft vendors along with musicians, in the  plaza mayor of the city. 

My only goal for the day was to see someone dressed up as Don Quixote
 anddddddd I did - he rode by on a horse. It was awesome.  Sancho was there too. 



SIDE NOTE: I have decided caramelized onions are the most amazing food in the world. And I miss Cheerios. Also, I think I'm going to a Real Madrid game Oct. 22nd.
