We arose early and went to breakfast at a little restaurant near the hotel called Cafeteria Veneto.  We had some churros, tortillas de patatas, and coffee.  It was a great meal!  We took the #53 bus again towards Sol.   Once again, this time due to construction, we could no…

I can´t find Lauro and the gang! Maybe because I´m not really looking and instead I´m taking advantage of  this 1euro an hour internet even though my computer is put in front of the door and if I scoot back a little like 2 feet I will be on the streets.  I don´t have phone credit…

Wow. I have utterly neglected this blog. I have many, many tales to tell and will get to them someday... you know, in between all my days lazying about at cafes and all.... but this story I must tell now. I only hope other girls traveling in Spain hear about my story and heed my advice.&n…

We got up, had breakfast and checked out of our hostel. I was pissed off with my nights lack of sleep and not looking forward to travelling to Paris. I soon perked  up a bit though. We were on our way to Paris today, where we'd spend 3 nights celebrating Loris birthday and Bastille day, a…

When I looked through the window this morning I saw the blue spotless sky again: Viva Madrid! We left early for breakfast, which we picknicked at the square in front of the Almudena and the Palacio Real. My father turned out to be sick from the worthless diner we had last night, and didn't even fin…

From El Escorial we came back to Madrid. This will be our last day here, in this awesome city. We were alreay so hungry that we went again to our favourite chinese resto where we ate yesterday (Near plaza Espańa). And again we had lots of good food:) and we saw again that nice waitress and we list…

Gotta say Madrid's airport looks quite a bit more impressive and LAX design-wise. Lol, so yes I did have to take pictures

This last Friday I had the opportunity to meet 14 travbuddies I only knew online! It was a fun day, pitty we did not have the chance to spend more time together! At night we were invited to a big party with swimming pool and a funny castle!
