Hola,
Maggie here. We arrived in Madrid yesterday, took the metro from the airport into the city and found our hostel no problem for the first time. The hostel isn't that great but it's not terrible either. The window in our room doesn't close all the way and this morning I woke up with a sore throat and not feeling too great. It was really cold in the room, it snowed a little last night. We're trying to switch to a room with windows that close.
First thing we did this morning was stop by the train station and get tickets for Barcelona on Friday. There was a bit of confusion when reserving our tickets. We said Barcelona, but for some reason homeboy thought we wanted Paris. We didn't catch it at first but then realized that it shouldn't take 12 hours to get to Barcelona from Madrid. But we ended up with the right tickets so it's all good.
After the train station we went to the Museo del Prado and saw lots of gnarly art. It was nice.
Me gusta hablando espanol con las personas.
Paz.

Nice one! I would not have given it a second thought, the 12 hours from Madrid to Barcelona. (Way to go, Heather?)
ReplyDeleteGood thing you caught it or you would be starting your trip all over again from the beginning. Maggie, get over your sore throat, you have a ways to go yet and...me alegro de que te gusta hablar español con la gente.
ReplyDeleteOooh, that would've been a bummer if you guys went all the way back to Paris... good thing you corrected "homeboy" (really, homeboy?) Anyway, hope your throat gets better spazzy, and DON"T FORGET: Yo tengo un puerqo en mis chonies. O pantelones whichever you prefer. Adios then.
ReplyDeletethe "homeboy" part was Heather's addition... and she says that you have no sense of humor, Clarence.
ReplyDeleteThe sore throat's gone, we were able to close the window in the room all the way last night and were fine today. yay. We might be changing up the trip, we're trying to go to Ireland before Italy and then come home from there. We'll be back about two weeks earlier than originally planned if we can gets flights and whatnot. We'll keep you updated as we figure it out.
Later.
