Chevy 1Well we spent like 4 hours today just trying to figure out how we were getting to our next location (porto, portugal) … so i went around speaking my broken spanish trying to explain to the people at the train station what we wanted to do..  we ended up giving up after the only thing they would offer us is a overnight train on the wrong day to lisbon…  which was 9 hours, and in the wrong direction of portugal.  We went to the bus station, waited in line… just to find out we were at the wrong station, we were at the domestic travel bus station… at this point, we were both like ‘fuck this…’ So we ended up finding a flight to the right town, at the right time… but it took up half the day.  If i was a more organized person… this trip would make my ass pucker.

Anyways… here are todays madrid pictures… Im heading to portugal really early in the morning, and i should have internet there… so i will be able to keep blogging and uploading pictures… speaking of pictures… I have allready taken more than 1 GB of photos…

we arrived in madrid last night… and we got a little lost after we walked right by our hostel… ran into a couple of black fellows who seemed to have a problem with us.  I ended up finding 2 really nice guys who walked us around… got rid of the black guys, and got us all the way to our hostel..  I feel alot better after a shower… 15 hour train rides suck.  Right now we are trying to figure out our situation for the next town… which is in portugal.  then we need to go make train reservations, and then we need to go see the city..  after all that crap we are going to a ham bar and some other stuff…

Ill try to get pics up tonight after we explore and stuffs..
