Day 3: March 10

Today was the first time we saw el Colegi Pare Manyanet. After a group breakfast, they took us on the exclusive VIP tour, showing us how they manage to fit almost 1500 students inside a relatively small area by expanding vertically. We saw some of the smallest toilets in existence in the new facility for kids of ages ranging from a few months to 4 years old.

For the rest of the school day, we got a taste of the tourist experience, walking all around the center of Barcelona to the Camp Nou (Stadium of FC Barcelona). Our guide Xavi, which by the way seems to be the only male name available in Barcelona, got us as close as he could, although we couldn't get inside the actual stadium. @JayEsty1 posted the group picture on twitter, and my iPad won't let me post it unless I download an app, which is just not happening at this point.

In other news, the basketball team was very welcoming to "Los Americanos" (Kian and I) and their coach, whose name you can probably guess by now, even let us play 5 on 5 with them. Los Americanos scored nearly all of their team's points, and have been invited back for tomorrow's practice at 7:00 in case you missed it today. Or just catch the replays on Sportscenter when we get back to the states. Buenos noches a todos, nos vemos mañana.
