The plane rides were kind of a chaosss but that's okay we got through it. I will explain that later in this email but for now here is the good stuff;; Today we saw Nicole because she came and visited, we went walking with her around our hotel. Now we know that there is a cool park behind our hotel that has a basketball court whih will be fun to play with some locals. And then a problem is that we didn't bring a basketball, but we brought a "futbol" (soccer) ball. I can play with that.

On our way to the internet café in the morning, I ducked my head into a hair salon to see how much it would cost to die my Raggedy Ann hair back to brown. As soon as I walked through the door, I knew I would again be employing my pigeon Spanish when all four female beauticians stopped what they were doing to focus their attention on me. “Hola! Habla Ingles?” I questioned with a cheery smile on my face. Unfortunately, my friendliness was greeted with a big fat “NO.” I felt like the subject of some psychology experiment as everyone stood watching, waiting for me to make my next move. Argh.

Hola otra vez, 14 JUNE - Thursday • The bus ride to Madrid was split up by a stop in Zaragoza, Spain's fifth-largest city. It's probably best-known for its cathedral, which we visited. It was a really enormous cathedral, constructed thanks to the riches brought back from the Americas, but the Plaza that lines its south side is no doubt one of the biggest I've ever seen, if not the longest.

Many restaurants offer you a full meal for one price - that'd include one plate (soup, salad or maybe some pasta), a second plate (fish/meat and potatoes) a ... read more

San Juan de Ortega - Burgos 21 km 07.05 Uhr - 13.30 Uhr Heute frueh war einiges los. Bin mit Marie ins Bad, und da hat Josette (eine FRanzoesin, sehr nett und liebenswuerdig) um die Toelittenschuessel gehangen. Ihr war irrsinnig schlecht. Sie ist dann total entkraeftet am Boden gelegen, dass wir sie erstmal aus der Kabine befreien mussten und hinlegen. Ursel eine Deutsche Krankenschwestern hat uns geholfen sie einigermassen zu stabilisieren und ein anderer Franzosen denn wir auf den WEg getroffen haben, hat dann die Ambulanz angerufen. Die haben sie gleich mitgenommen und im Krankenhaus gelassen. MEin Gott war das heute ein Schock. Ich wollte sie eigentlich nicht alleine lassen. Aber zum Glueck ist sie jetzt gut versorgt, denn in der Einoede da oben waere es wirklich nichts gewesen. Sind dann bis zum Ortsrand von ... read more
