So I had immediately taken my money and my debit card out of my old wallet and put it in the new wallet.

Well, for fashion. I wanted to be a little stylish on this trip. Some additional context. I wasn't really the most popular kid in high school. Obviously, I had friends. But for some reason, when we got to this trip, the group of students kind of split up into two. It was like all the upper echelon popular kids in one group and then the rest of us in the bottom half.

So a big part of our Spanish education is we learn a lot about the Metro and the different types of modes of transportation native Spanish people take for their commute day to day.
