Madrid, Spain

Hi everyone! You´ll be happy to know that Tim, Maria, and I are all safe and TOGETHER in Spain. I had been so anxious to meet up with everyone for about a week now, and it was music to my ears to hear Maria yelling at Tim on the top floor of our hostel (okay, not really yelling... we´re not sick of each other... yet...)

We had a lot to take care of today, mainly finding each other and buying train tickets for the next few days, but we had a lot of time for fun as well. We took the metro a couple stops west to the Plaza de Ramales to look for the Cristiano Ronaldo statue that I had wanted to see so bad that, sadly, does not actually exist. We also stopped in at Plaza Mayor and have even bigger plans for Madrid on Thursday (we will be in Toledo tomorrow).

After our little adventure, we all took showers (finally!) and headed out to a Tapas crawl with our hostel, where we ate more Spanish dishes than our stomachs were meant to hold. We ate at 4 restaurants over a course of 3 hours--this is turning out to be my kind of trip ;)

We´ll blog again tomorrow de Toledo!
Daniel

P.S. Photos to come soon!
