Since I hadn't really taken a walk today before class, I took the opportunity after class to walk out to the train station and check out the area around it that I had not visited before. On my way there, I passed a cupcake shop - first one I have seen in Spain.
I also found this statue of the famous Flamenco singer Pepe Peregil. It is directly in front of the bar that he used to own. There are still a number of small bar owners who perform Flamenco (usually singing or guitar) in their own bars for whatever patrons happen to be there - but probably none who are as famous.
I did eventually make it to the train station. It is a pretty standard train station with a few restaurants and shops - it is not a particularly beautiful building, but it was clean and there were lots of travelers.
After checking out the station, I made my way home along a different route. I found a place to buy superhero socks (although I think I am set for now).
But this shop made me think about maybe starting a hat collection. On second thought maybe I will leave the hats to someone else...but maybe I could use some of these ideas to accessorize my socks!

After my long walk, I am ready for an early night.
