One day while walking down the street with three of your friends, you look down on the ground and find four plane tickets to Madrid lying on the ground. You and your friends then call the airport to report the lost tickets. The staff of the airport commends all of you for your honesty and they reward you by giving you a free trip to Spain! Although, the tickets will be given back to you based on one condition.

The trip to Spain is in exactly two months. The round trip tickets will allow you to stay in Spain for 14 days. Within these next two months, you and your friends must learn about the Spanish society. For example, you must conduct research using the websites listed and inform yourselves about the Spanish people, history, food, sports, landmarks, music, etc.
Also, all of you need to decide which cities you would like to visit while on your trip. The trip will start in Madrid and end in Barcelona. You must find a city or two to visit as well as the two big cities. For example, you could visit Seville, Leon, Granada, Toledo, or Valladolid.
Once you return from your exciting trip, your group will create a final presentation to share with the class.
