Oct 9 & 10- Basketball Game and Chocolate Museum

The Barcelona Basketball team played the Dallas Mavericks for a preseason game on October 9th and we got cheap tickets through our program so some of my friends and I decided to go. The basketball stadium is up on a mountain overlooking the entire city. I didn't know who I was going to cheer for, but once we got there I realized that I still really wanted the Mavericks to win. Go America! Barcelona ended up winning, but it was still a lot of fun. The next day we went on a tour of the Museu de Xocolata (Chocolate Museum) in Barcelona. It was very small but we learned about the history of chocolate and how chocolate was first used in Spain. There were also a lot of statues made out of chocolate and I decided that my calling in life is to be a chocolate sculptor. The tickets were made out of chocolate too so that was a plus!
