hola!
our flight got into Madrid around 11:30 this morning but we had to leave Rome at 6:15 so it was an early morning!
Got to our hotel which is nice and in walking distance of everything (although we're not really sure what to do here....)
I'm feeling a little better but still needed to rest after our flight and by the time our siesta was over it was too late to go to any of the sights (Prado Museum or Palacio Real) but neither of them were high on our priority list so it's fine with us.
Just had some churros con chocolate and we´re at this cool internet cafe inside a restaurant....you put the money into a slot like a pay phone.
We don't have much time here in Madrid - leave for Barcelona on a 1:30 flight tomorrow- so not sure what we´re doing with the rest of our time.
Probably just tapas y beer.
Only one more stop on this whirlwind tour of Europe. I feel like I´ve been gone forever. London was so long ago! We were looking through our cameras yesterday and half of the stuff we took pictures of I can barely remember seeing haha.
I guess that´s what little rest does to your memory.
I know the language here at least so it makes it a little easier. They have weird Spanish accents though - not like the Latin American ones that I'm used to hearing. (they say "th" where for "c")
I just realized i've been using accent marks as apostrophes this whole time haha. guess you'll just have to deal!
OH and guess what??? it's raining here!
Hopefully the weather in BarTHelona will be nicer because most of the stuff we want to see is outside.
See you all very soon! We both can't wait to be home, we've burnt ourselves out and need a vacation from this vacation. At least I'm unemployed and on infinite vacation! haha
Love
Elise (matt's across the room checking his fantasy team)

Rome sounds awesome, as have all the other places you've been. Can't wait to see the pictures :) Have a safe trip home!!
Matt and Elise,
Barthelona, the last stop on the trail of appetizers! Yes, you WILL need a vacation from this!!! I feel like I need a vacation from your whirlwind tour! Whew!
Such great memories and as long as the photos in your camera are in order, you can figure out where you thought you might have been. Enjoy Gaudi and more tapas.
Pack those slickers - the weather here has been beautiful - can't wait to see you on Friday -89 and sunny!!!!!!!
