a quickie from madrid...

we´re finally here. the trip on the two planes was far from painless. our first flight to philly was delayed by 20 minutes and we didn´t get there until 50 minutes before our connection. so....after frantically rushing from one concourse to another, we boarded the other plane and sat there for another hour forty before we took off. sheesh. our asses were seriously tired even before the plane took off.

the flight to madrid was a bit better though. we were lucky enough to get some seats that were behind the crew´s sleeping area, which meant no one slamming into our knees at all. the onboard movies were great (big fish, the last samurai, school of rock, mystic river, and that looney tunes one). so, we settled in for another eight hours. lois was majorly uncomfortable though...

the hotel we´re staying at is a three star w7 nice amenities, although it´s a bit small. we found this internet cafe after quaffing a few beers and stuffing ourselves full of tapas at a cerveceria (brewery...but more of a beer garden). argh. it is so hard getting used to these keyboards...the keys are different.

anyway, i´m gonna let lolis blog for a few minutes before our time runs out! so...see ya!
