Not much to say, stayed 3 nights in Madrid Spain, Pretty much did nothing , the hotel we stayed was a 4 star and was cheaper than any hostel we are staying at. Spain are super strict in the palaces and castles so no photos there totally sucks.
The flea market on sunday was pretty wild , mass mobs of people gawking at non aunthentic stuff and stuff. Madrid has a crazing night life, no one goes out untill 10 or 11 at night , that is when they have dinner! Then they party till the sun comes up. Andria and I looked at the sights and rested after our wicked time in Paris.
Now we are in Barcelona, friggin killer. Gotta go we are goin to check out the cathedral that has been in construction for over 200 years.
Day 2 in Barcelona
What a cool night spent all night till the wee hours stolling the gottic quarter(old town) and La Rambla a mile long street full of shops, bars mimes, human statues and craziness. Today we went and checked out the gaudi stuff which was over stimulating. Check out the picks, thatīs all to say , tonight gonna have dinner and 20 cent beers in the park in the gottic quarter.
Adios
Chase and Andria

Hey guys. Have you gone to Park Guille yet? If you climb up the hill where the cross is, it will give you an amazing view and a great sunset if it isn't cloudy. Watch out for the pick pockets in Barcelona.
Also did you go up the tower in the Sagrida de Familia? I didn't know you couldn't take pictures, I took a ton, hah hah. You just gotta sneak one in. I also went to a club called the Razmataz (sp?) I partied there till 6am, hah hah.
Madrid was a lot of fun. You should of looked up the girl I stayed with on CS. She would of shown you around for sure. It made Madrid a lot of fun for me. I went with her to Pamplona as well for the running of the bulls. Chase, you would of liked that. How is the weather in Spain right now. Can you still chill on the beach or is it too cold?
Where are you going next? If you go to Sevilla I know someone that you should stay with, or at least go out for coffee. She is German but has a Spanish boyfriend and I went with them and a group of Spanish people to Tarifa and went camping. It was a lot of fun.
Granada is also a place you guys should go if you can. It's beautiful there. Anyways let me know where you are headed next. Peace.
