So we took our first ryanair flight and it was very reminiscent of southwest airlines....no complaint there. The airport in Valladolid was about 2 12 hours outside of Madrid, so we took a bus and saw some of the Spanish countryside on the way.
My friend Cristina picked me up at the bus station and I left the boys to figure out the metro to get to their hostel. Cris showed me around the center of Madrid after driving a while to find a parking spot. We ended up running into the boys while Cris was showing me around, ¨And this is Plaza Santa Ana and this is Calle...and there is your brother.¨ Kind of random, but I guess Madrid is smaller than it looks. They found their hostel fine.
Today I am just walking around getting lost on one calle and walking to another. That´s usually how I spend the first day in any city....just getting lost and discovering new things. Speaking of new things, out of all the things I thought I was going to try in Spain, Cristina insisted I have jamon....ham. Hmmmm....I had a little with a beer last night and I must say the Spaniards know how to cure meat. Muy bueno!
Sorry that I haven´t posted more pictures....will do so in the next week.
