Last day in Madrid today. We leave for a freakish 13 hour trip at 19.00 and will arrive at 08.00 something tomorrow... Haaaardcore. Im looking forward to Paris. We actually might knock off our London leg of the trip because we know it is very expensive there, and this trip is costing much already, and, well, to be honest, were not really interested anymore in seeing England. I think the time Gill and I spent there at the airports has left a bad taste in our mouths. So, English is pretty much officially out. Instead, we may add an extra day to Paris, move our Amsterdam reservation forward, visit Kaja in Germany around the 20th or 21st instead of the 24th or so, and then we will spend several extra days in Italy and, *ahem Mommy* we will visit your town.
Weve had to budget like crazy. At this point, we eat the free breakfast that is provided by the hostel, and then we survive on baked goods such as croissants, and fruits and nuts and coffee during the day. We have one meal--at night. We have fit in quite well here as we tended to spend the day outside and then be so tired that we´d return to the hostel for the requisite Spanish siesta and then eat at 22.00 . There is a freaky deaky health freak restaurant near our hostel that I wanted to try out, so I went there yesterday, but reservations were required. So, instead, I ate at an ASIAN RESTAURANT just steps away. I had veggie dumplings and veggie spring rolls. SO GOOD!!! Ahhh, how strange it is to say that Asian food reminds me of home ;) hehe... anyway, so thats pretty much it. The architecture is lovely, but nothing I have seen so far was more frightening or impressive than the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. The Duomo in Italy was quite beautiful as well. Anyhoo, people wait to use the computer.
25 days til my return :P (can you tell I miss home? haha) Anyway, Im feeling bette than I felt since my last entry. Ciao a tutti!
