I´m here and in one piece... so for those of you that doubted me, you can suck on that! haha
Here was the schedule so far getting over here.
1- two hours at the airport
2- 8 hour flight to Munich, which wasn´t bad and teh little greek lady next to me kept giving me food while I got to watch Terminator Salvation for the second time and the proposal with sandra bullock which literally wanted to make me never wathc a movie agian, but it was free so it wasn´t terrible
3- one hour layover in munich
4- two hour flight to barcelona was AWEFUL. there was a ´gang´of like 15 german women just screaming at each other in german the entire trip. good thing my ipod was charged....
5- taxi in barcelona to the train station and got on the first train without much problem
6- train went directly to tarragona and another taxi took me right to my apartment
My apartment is so much better than anywhere I have lived so far. Not only is it like 3 years old with completely modern ammenities, but there is a balcony, a washer, and everything is completely modern. Of course i got the SMALLEST room in the place (i´d equate it to a size 7.5 shoebox) but who cares, i´m not exaclty planning on living out of my room!
My two roomies and I went around the town center for about two hours yesterday so i got to see a big portion of the town. Then we ate dinner together! They want to share meals and food costs and stuff and I said that as long as I can, i Will! this way i get a little bit of the authentic catalan cuisine for cheeeeeeep....
I can´t write anymore but things here are not too bad. I am definitely still finding my way around and getting used to it. I must say, Tarragona is a little bit different that Long Grove.
Moltes gracies per lliure (and since no one here speaks anything besides catalan, that´s how it is)
PS: is it illegal here to put free drinking fountains around, like in an airport? they have people that literally hose down the sidewalks at night but they can´t spare any water for the weary traveller?
Surprise! Spoke to your Mom yesterday and that's how I found you. How far are you from Barcelona and in what direction? Glad to hear that you are enjoying your adventure. Hope the job works out and that you will let me know the highlights. (if you have any time). I have always enjoyed traveling because of the unknown. When you least expect it something delightful happens.
ReplyDeleteKeep Well, Enjoy. Love, June (your aunt, in case you know more than one June). Happy Holiday. What are you going to do without good chicken soup?
