Madri Arriba!
Feb 23, 2007 (15 photos)

Espanha - Madri Cidade chata, insuportável, olha cheguei de noite em um vôo da Finnair, de 4 horas e no aeroporto começa a baixaria! Ninguém sabe para onde ir e para onde as malas vão, uma confusão. Algumas pessoas se arriscam em dizer que a Espanha está atrás do mundo. Em parte eu concordo com essa teoria, os espanhóis, não todos, mas a maioria...

Nuestro primer día....
Jun 16, 2008

Finalmente, después de una espera de más de una hora y media para retirar el equipaje en el aeropuerto de Barajas y correr por el aeropuerto para llegar a la estación de metro, llegamos al hostel. La ubicación es muy buena. Queda a unas dos cuadras de la Puerta del Sol. Resumiendo (porque no es muy barata la conexión de internet desde donde esto...

The first few days of our trip
Mar 8, 2002

So here we are in beautiful Madrid. Today is our third day here, and we´re finally adjusted. We stayed the first two nights at a place called Los Amigos Backpackers Hostel, which was a dorm style hostel with 6 people per room. It was clean, and a great place to meet people, but we like having our own space, and not having to lock up our stuff. S...

Hey all, so yesterday I left my small cocoon of Lauterbrunnen and head out to the big city - Luzern. And what a city it was amazing I took the boat down lake Luzern stopping in the small town of Weggis, where they where having a great street fair. Then I spent some time exploring Luzern which is just a magical city. Lucky for me and my credit ca...

Sevilla, train, Madrid arrival
Jul 24, 2008

We had a wonderful afternoon lounging by the pool at our spectacular hotel. We all had mojitos and Edie and I split a smoked salmon and pasta salad that was excellent. While I think she was "drunk" on the amazingness of the 5 star hotel and the day in the heat, and pool, and the 2 mojitos, when I said we had to thank Jeff (Andrew´s brother) for ...

Good Sangria and a Day of Museums
Jul 26, 2008

The other evening, after checking in and dumping our stuff, we went to a bar called Stop Madrid that Edie found in her guidebook. The book said it had amazing sangria and it was no lie. We had a couple tapas and a few pitchers of Sangria and everyone was back to being in a better mood. We headed back around 8pm so that Andrew could pick up his l...

Yay Art!
Jul 26, 2008

Note: Edie can`t put the straw in the hole. Note 2: I am pretty sure that Andrew is still bi-suited. We went to the Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofia today. Both Andrew and Edie came with me. So cool! The Guernica is amazing, although unfortunately they don`t let you get too close to it. It was also nice to walk around with them and show them the...

Madrid
Jul 3, 2008

After spending a long time on the plane and even longer (2 hours!) on the Madrid metro system, I checked into my hostel and checked out the country of Spain. Ended up hanging with a Liverpudlian (is that what you call their kind) and a Melbourne chick who could speak fluent Spanish, very handy. Ate a weird meal. We thought we were ordering tapas...

Am not going to type too much today as my RSI is hurting a bit today. Hopefully my pictures will tell the tale. Also, the spell check on this comp is set to Spanish so some words might be a bit weird and I don´t have time to proof read today! Friday morning I went on a walking tour of Old Madrid. I love walking tours, they give you the lay of th...

City Tripping
Feb 8, 2008

Most people have a certain desire to travel the world, which is why more and more young people like me decide to take a gap year between finishing school and starting university. This time is used to learn a new language, consider plans for the future and, most importantly, to have an extraordinary experience that includes getting to know not on...

Day 12 part 2
Oct 5, 2007 (16 photos)

The weather here is FANTASTIC!! I have been dealing with overcast and chilly weather this whole time! I think I can even wear the shorts that I packed!! I figure myself out via tourist information at the airport. I get information about hostels and about the metro. I decide to try to find the Los Amigos hostel near the Opera stop. It sounds pret...

I got up nice and early at 8am. Got myself some mediocre breakfast from the hostel here. It consisted of baguettes, honey, jam, butter and cereal. At least thery had 3 varieties of tea?! One of the woman that works in the hostel is from Russia and she immediately falls in love with me. Her name is Natalia. She keeps trying to speak to me in Russ...

Madrid, Toledo, and Western Spain.
Feb 29, 2008 (28 photos)

Day 1 - Madrid is great! We're recovering from Jetlag, it's pretty bad this time. The best part about getting tired at noon is the whole city shuts down anyway. The spanish still retain their traditions of the mid day nap. Small shops close down between 12 and 2 for a mid day siesta, then they open again until about 8 or 9. At that point most pe...
