Madrid

Well I arrived in Madrid last night and caught up with Robert again which was great. We then went out to dinner in this really nice restaurant (I didn´t think we would get in with our ´travellers style´ - first time I have worn pants in like three weeks the weather has been so great.) So we did get in and had a really nice dinner with some other people I had met in Barcelona.... and the best thing was it looked fancy it tasted fancy but it didn´t cost fancy! How good is that?
After dinner Rob and I walked back to our part of town, the real Madrid where all the students live and there's at least two bars on every corner. As we were walking there was a massive thunder storm with not only sheet lightning but bolts of lightning flashing through the sky. We stopped to watch the storm go over head (I thought is was exciting) but then once the lightning had gone past on came the rain and we got very wet as we ran back to our hostel.
We spent the rest of the night in a little bar drinking beer and catching up on our travel stories. It was a great night.
Off to explore Madrid!!!
love you all
