Sí una cerveza por favor

Hoy was the longest day ever...I managed to sleep a little on the plane but not much. Luckily it wasn't full at all and I had the whole row to myself. I slept the entire way from London to Madrid which made for a very sore neck. I had my laptop taken at the airport for further screening and then I had my backpack searched and each individual thing was placed under the x-ray thing so it took a while to get through security at Heathrow.

Oh well...now I'm here and I'm so excited! Hace más frio than I thought it'd be but it's all good cause I brought enough warm clothes. I missed my first pickup at the airport and so I waited a while for the next one but there were 9 others getting picked up then too which worked out. We took a bus to the hotel which is surprisingly nice, right in the middle of Madrid with tons of stuff around to do. We are definitely going out tonight to celebrate turning 21! Vamos a Santana, el mesero en la tapería recommended it to us.

I went to a tapas bar with Caitlin, Molly, Brett and Andrea...it was interesting to say the least. The menú was complete gibberish and we all just ordered something that seemed like it'd be good. I took the safe road with a salad...every thing has ham in it or cabra, which is goat. I'm all set with that. For now anyway! The hotel room is small and I'm sharing it with 2 other girls so our beds are jammed together, it was a struggle to fit the suitcases in there too. It's also weird that there's no shower curtains? I guess I'll hafta get used to that. I'm going to try to nap before we have a panoramic tour of la ciudad.

Besos, KP
