<br><br> Went into the city again today to call some job vacancies. Ive got a guaranteed job promoting a bar crawl where tourists pay 15 euros to go to 4 bars and then a club, getting a free shot or beer in each bar and free entry to the club, normally about 15 euros. I make 5 euros for each person i get signed up. start tonight or tomo, prob tomo, im knackered after staying up late last night with some ...

... than reality. Unfortunately the rest of the day didn't live up to the early promise, the sun was shinning, which was nice but the scenery was fairly unmemorable and the day seemed to drag on. Toward the end of the day I managed to loose my map, which was a pain as I realised 20km too late, fortunately it wasn't as bad as it could have been as I was on the final stretch to Lleida, my end point, where I managed to pick up a replacement. That ...

... hit up every ride we wanted to ... no problem. OH! Almost forgot. At Tibidabo, we saw a Muslim woman (I'm presuming) ... who was wearing something I've never seen before. Anybody know what it is? (photo here... yes, me risking life and limb again) ... It almost looked like a mouth guard or medical device one might wear after a broken jaw or something, but it appeared from a distance to made out of bronze, and I'm wondering if it has some religious significance. Anybody know?

... street performers who were playing the most amazing music with some very unusual instruments. It sounded very moorish or middle eastern. Then we headed back to the hostel to sort out something to do for the evening. Ben was going out with some americans who told us about what they called the Magic Fountain, which sounded cool, so we dragged along Kristian, Alex`s german roomate, at about 9pm started the fairly long walk toward the fountain, stopping on the way for some very ...

... us. Luckily we had our money too secure for her to steal, but she chased after us asking for money for a sandwich. We ended up giving her 2 euros (which we now regret) and she complained because she wanted 4. The same thing happened to a guy who was on the train with us last night. On Saturday, the Fete de Musique (or Musical festival) started and we got to see numerous bands around Paris playing at cafes and bars. While some played ...

... kovempaa hinta kuin suomessa. valitettavasti ilmat eivat ole meita hirveesti suosineet, yhtena paivana paastiin rannalle, muuten on ollut melko pilvista, lukuunottamatta tietysti tata lahtopaivaa joka on ollut viikon lampimin. Taalla ollaan oltu nyt 4paivaa ja tanaan kaantyy juna kohti pohjoista ja paluumatka alkaa. Otamme yòjunan kohti pariisia ja ...

... tickets, this for the Champions League contest against Glasgow Rangers on Wednesday November 7. This time Ryanair had a $150 per-person round-trip fare. We were in business. Three-hour drive to Pisa, 90-minute flight to Barcelona Girona, hour bus ride into the city, twenty-minute cab ride to the hotel, fifteen minute walk to the stadium, and we were there at Camp Nou, considered the most famous football stadium on the planet. FC Barcelona represents more ...

1 April Day 7: Barcelona, Spain To finish off Madrid, we all got up early to check on the local market on a nearby street. The air was still crisp and damp as the cool morning sun pierced through the alleys. The streets center remained empty minus the few tourists and locals walking through. The edges on the street were packed full of movement. Bags, boxes, people, trucks, unloading ...

... the longest bench in the world (I´d been here before, but didn´t realize that), it has such a beautiful view of the city. We went out to a gigantic Barcelona Club called La Terrrazza (yes, that many r´s) and danced in the upstairs room to decent techno although downstairs was weird rock stuff. Getting run down from all the tourism, Lance and I are ready for the big end in Ibiza. We´re going there for the ´´culture´´, right?

... really is pretty. Hmmmm. After that, I wandered around some more and then had some dinner and back to the hostel via La Ramblas. I love that street! Today, my foot is still hurting me, so I resorted to the metro full on. I packed up most of my stuff last night and went through things that I didn´t need anymore, my huge collection of maps and papers growing by the second! I hate packing. Nothing exciting today really. Had a few things to do before I leave to Rome in ...
