On Thrusday we drove to Valencia (after cutting our class a half hour short:)) and arrived at the Lladró factroy! For those of you who have know idea what lladró is, its a type of fancy porcelain... Well this was so exciting because our family owns a couple pieces! Every year for Christmas (for three years), my sisters and I would go pick out a little porcelain girl for my momma--representing each one of us. We always fight about which one we get to have when the lladró are passed on to us... so it was really cool to see how its all done! We were able to go through the whole line up (unfortunately, pictures are prohibited) and everything is done by hand. The employees are also artists who do work on their own, and are very skilled.

After we went to a super fancy dinner to eat some delicious Paella! Paella came from Valencia, so of course the best paella comes from there.... as you can see

On Saturday, we went to Toledo. It was awesome, even though it was pouring rain the entire time. Toledo is the cutest little town, but due to all the "no fotos" rules i couldnt get too many pictures but here are a few.
