Last Day In Madrid

Today is our last day in Madrid, but the photos from below were taken yesterday in the mountains. Nothing special.. we went hiking, had some lunch and went back to the city for gelato.

These shirts are rediculous, right?




Tomorrow, we go to Montpellier!

We´re Spoiled, and One for RyMac

Today we made lunch, (biggest meal of á typical Spanish day.. six courses ohman,) for Carlos´s parents and 3 of his friends.. and us of course. There were 9 people, so you can imagine Louie, Carlos, Victoria and I have been up since 9am cooking. It was alot of fun though. Sorry to keep it short but pictures are better, and I´m in a rush because Carlos and Louie are going to eat my dinner, lol.- Anyway, here are some photos of the country side, the mountains and Carlos´s house there. oh ps.. did anyone know that its quite common for European households to have a permanently-placed spit, (of some sort,)in their kitchen, to hold an entire leg of Procuitto.. its crazy. Theres a HUGE isle in every grocery store dedicated to gigantic legs of procuitto, which are hanging absolutely everywhere. pps i still can´t find the question mark key on this Spanish keyboard


















Also, Mac, as specifically requested, a pic of some ¨cool shit in Spain¨. This ones for you: ´(obviously,) its a bottle of Grand Reserva 904, Rioja from 1995- and we had a couple of them today. It was delicious and I thought of you when I was drinking it.
