We have arrived in Madrid! We are staying at a pretty nice hotel... I wouldn't mind staying in the palace hotel ( I assume it's a cousin of the alvear palace in buenos aires) a few doors down but oh well! I am sitting in the lobby, which is the only place where you can get wireless. I have seen countless cute Spanish boys! Yippee! So far we walked with some of our new friends ( from Louisiana and California) to get lunch and then we walked to a cute little gelato place. It seems as if I am the only one on this trip who actually can converse in Spanish...what's new! I was born for this! Of course, all the EHS kids minus Katherine and I are staying in their little clique, but again what's new! EVERYONE here smokes! It's kinda gross but it seems as it is the "stylish" thing to do...not for me! Here is a picture of the lobby...
As you can tell from the hola bienvenido hello welcome sign on the front desk, this hotel is like a magnet for funny tourists! Now I can spend my next 3 1/2 hours of free time people watching! At 6 pm, we are supposed to go on a bus tour of some sort. Spain is calling! Hasta luego!
