I ran my first race in Spain!

I did the Holi Run here in Spain. It's called the Color Run in America. You get covered in powered dye throughout the race. I beat my previous 5K time by 3 minutes 44 seconds! 

They had a kind of concert and dance show before the race! It was a lot of fun!!

Pizza of Naples

Pizza was supposedly invented in Naples, Italy. So, it's only right that I eat a lot of pizza while I'm there! 

The pizza is very different than American pizza. They take care to use high quality ingredients, even the cheap pizza had high quality ingredients. It was true tomato sauce and sometimes it was actually just tomatoes that were mashed into a paste. They use a lot of oil also. So that most of the pizzas were wet with oil and the mashed tomato. The crust was always high quality bread that was amazing without the toppings even! I am a vegetarian so all of these pizzas are just cheese. I didn't think to take pictures of other pizzas!

Those are chunks of a hard Parmesan cheese. It was amazing!

This pizza wasn't as good as the others but it was still good!
This pizza was very good. The cheese was very fresh and the tomatoes were excellent.
