We headed to Madrid for a night where Joe and I both got the revelation that we are WAY to old to stay in hostels. We are always the first ones to bed and the first ones up in the morning. And the fact that we are married puts us way over the hostel age limit...
Next we were greeted by our Kiwi friends in Barcelona. Where we spent the next three days together. We were lucky to find a hotel in Barcelona as I guess Barcelona is a happenin' city. We laughed alot and spoke ALOT of English, which was very refreshing. It is nice to have friends who will act as stupid as you do...ha ha ha. This was a great way to celebrate the halfway mark of our trip.
Yesterday we trained to Nice, France and stayed the night and now today we are off to explore Italy. Our first stop in Genova, Italy for two nights. We cant wait for some good Italian food!
This is the place we stayed in Barcelona with our friends Strahn and Racheal. It was called a Pension, but we have yet to find out what Pension really means.
This is down by the water, we had stopped for a snack and became fascinated with the dirty fish below.
This picture may not mean much but it is quite funny. We were down by the port and they had this huge mirror, so we were there for about 30 min. acting stupid and taking multiple pictures of ourselves as people watched and wondered "what the heck are they doing?"
I am so jealous! It looks like you guys had a blast with Rach & Strahn!! Are you going to get to meet up with them again before you come home? I love the big mirror picture.....oh how it makes me feel at home. :-) Well I am still on bedrest and I must say I get to check your blog much more often...I mean what else do I have to do?!! Ash, when you tried to call me the number showed up as 0123456, so I wasn't sure what it was...so I didn't answer. When you call again...I'll know. :-) Well I suppose I should go...I have SO much to do...haha..
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear about your adventures. I've been to Genoa before and it is so fun...
ReplyDeleteAnd I didn't mean to post that comment yet. Oh well. Anyway, Genoa is really cool...eat lots of Gelato and enjoy walking around the streets. I think I ate some fabulous chinese food in that city...Take care & be good. - Ginger
ReplyDeleteI like the picture of the dirty fish. - Craig
