In Spain

So. After a VERY long day of flights and waiting at airports and sleeping in odd places in said airports... I finally got to Spain yesterday afternoon. I love it! After London, Madrid is quickly becoming my favorite city. I went to el Parque de Retiro and realized that I had forgotten what GREEN is! Really! After being in a desert of yellow and brown and red and white, seeing so many TREES and GRASS and BUSHES EVERYWHERE. Even the shade seemed green. It made the Cook's backyard look like a weed patch. Ohhh, I love trees =]

I met up with Dane in Alcala de Henares and he's shown me around a bit. The next few days we're going to go around Madrid a bit, and on the 18th we set off on our adventure!

When I actually take pictures, I'll try and put some up. But for now, that's about all I got. Hope all is going well at home!

PS: Happy Father's Day, dad! You're wonderful =] Love you!
