Deppy’s Birthday/ Class Walk / Futbol

... in Plaza Santa Ana and walked close to the Prado and other parts of Sol. It is basically where a lot of the art and writers are from. The streets are full of quotes and different things to remind everyone of the famous people from there. Once the walk ended we all went for Gellato close by. I got coffee it was really yummy!

Then we split up with the intention to go out for Italian food for Deppy’s birthday.

At 9:30 we ...

Notes about Spaniards and Random Stuff

... And they could be just some random house and nothing special about it at all. I think it would be cool to rent a car in each country and just get out of the city to see what life was like. Just seeing the big cities isn´t a full representation of the home country at all. Just like seeing only NYC isn´t really seeing what America is all about.

The way of life here is so different compared to the US. As I was walking around Seville on a Sunday ...

Madrid

... was okay, they were all awesome. Nobody should come to Madrid without going there. There's lots of music on the streets no matter where you walk. There's a lot if construction because they want to win the olympic bid. We also visited a big park downtown and the prado museum. Sunny was really happy that we got in for free because it was after 6pm. Overall, Madrid was very good, Spain is looking like the best part of the trip so far. We were supposed to go to Valencia tomorrow ...

MADRID

... city Placa de Sol. This city was one of the most populated cities I have ever been too. It reminded me of what New York might look like. Not only do the people of Spain tend to spend more time out on the streets or socializing, it was a huge tourist weekend. In the evenings the streets would look like some sort of festival was going on. There was also a billion shoe stores. Every other store sold shoes. So ...

A potted summary of Spain

... some of the better eating options. We had been told that San Sebastien is a great party town, but we were among the last in. That felt very strange. We had a bus out at midnight the next night, so we spent the day and most of the evening on the beach. This bus was to Madrid, where we didn't want to go, but we were too late to get the bus we wanted, which left at a decent hour and arrived in Cordoba. Either way a connection was needed for Granada which we easily caught from ...

Granada

... guy points me to the machine. I get there to first still need the help of this poor woman who apparently knows EVERY language known. When you use the machine it looks like the tickets for the day are sold out (because it says that it is sold out). But apparently if you just go ahead and press the time slot you want (AM v PM) via the gray box you will get your ticket. Next, I find out that you still need to enter a pin. What is it with Spain and Portugal ...

Who knew I'm gangsta even in MAD

... Yesterday (Tuesday) we sat around watching TV for about 3 hrs. It was a count down of the most influential spanish personas. They love them some tv these spaniards. They eat in silence and watch them some tv. A friend of hers joined us for din din and she got shushed a couple times so that he could hear what was going on in the news. haha. I shushed her myself when they talked about "Salvador Dali". It was very spanish of me...apparently. I like her lots cuz we sit around and ...

Welcome to Espana!

... 30 minutes in the middle of Atocha! I guess I was stared at by quite a few people, but at that point I couldn't care less! The AVE ride was about 2.5 hours and it was very peaceful. I thought that there was not a whole lot of countryside in Spain, but it was almost completely rural between Madrid and Sevilla! It was mostly very dry, although there were little olive trees everywhere, as well as the occasional flower field.

Octopus and the Stations of the Cross

... this late winter, and the Port of Valencia. Currently, it is quiet and rarely touristed, but this is on the verge of change. In 2007, Valencia will host the America's Cup and the delights of this port-workers' neighborhood should attract some well-deserved attention. The neighborhood appears in the histories of Valencia beginning in the 15th century and was once a community of thatched fisherman's cottages lined up neatly by the sea. Catastrophic fires, the last one in 1875 ...

ok ok

Hey everyone, So we´re back on the travelogue for all of those who have been shouting at us, we appreciate your love and miss your way of showing concern(s) :) . We have many an adventure to tell you about. Since our last entry we have been to Lucerne in Switzerland where we took a boat cruise which was amazing. We also learned that the swiss are paranoid about having a war which will probably never happen and have hidden planes ...
