I am now in Madrid - but it is still cold and snowing!! I suppose it must be because it is winter! But still really enjoying myself - I am so blessed :)
I have been lucky enough to stay with the family of a girl who stayed with my family in Perth! They have welcomed me to Spain so well and are wonderful people. And we celebrated the 3 Kings on the 5th/6th which was like another Christmas! We watched a parade through one of the main streets where they throw alot of candy out to the crowds - very exciting! Then we had more presents and lots of good food. We had some good weather for walking around Madrid which is a really beautiful city with lots of historical buildings and parks.
Enjoyed lots of food in Paris as well - even the snails! Also checked out the Mona Lisa in the Louvre (because it was free on Sunday!) and some other interesting museums. The view from the top of the Notre Dame was unforgetable as the sun was setting over Paris. Met some great Spanish Aussies who brightened up the grey day :)
Heading to Morocco tomorrow and looking forward to seeing some sun!!
