Free as we'll ever be

Finished with finals and not yet on to summer internships, yesterday my friends and I celebrated our "responsibility-free" day. That was our theme as we played all day and acted like kids.

We started out the day by sleeping in. Then we went to the Mercat Central, which happens to be Europe's largest food market. We bought whatever our little hearts desired to prepare a picnic. The best decision we made was to each compile our own little bags of trail mix from the nuts stand.

Next stop was the bike rental store. I took the whole non-responsibility thing to an extreme and wiped out in the first five minutes from not paying attention to where I was pedaling. Anyways, we biked through a gorgeous garden slash parks to the day. We stopped along the way to play on a giant rope playground along the way.

The beach was perfect. We got a great spot near the marina with a view of mountains in the distance. The beach wasn't too crowded because it's still a little early, which was nice. And the weather could not have been better.

On the way home we stopped at one more playground. This one was shaped like a giant man, and we rode slides down his belt.

Today though our worldly responsibilities resumed as we had to make it to the airport on time, which is actually kind of a struggle. But we made it, and we are in Ibiza waiting for our bus!
