hello? again, well its hard to remember stuff from where i last left off.
Our last night in Switzerland was fun, we were just at the camping grounds and our whole group played drinking games together, it was good bonding...
Then we got on another 10 hours bus ride to get to avigon. Avigon was really just a mid point between barcelona since its so far out of the way. I was dissapointed in how much time we spent there. only about 3 hours. We went in the walled city and ate wherever we wanted, saw the bridge and such, but our hotel was in the middle of nothing, so it was an early night. And once again, french poeple are just not very nice to us.
One nice thing is that I have tried some new things on the trips. I tried my first olive (not so great), i ate some wierd vegetables, and had a spanish beer. I am really not trying that many beers, pretty much everynight is a big drinking night, but i stick to wine and cocktails.
I am in barcelona now. Its a really cool city, I didn?t really know what to expect from spain. OUr hostel is in the best location, right in the iddle of all the night life and close to anything we want. Its also an art hostel so its decorated really cool. But, THe main thing is i feel way more comfortable here, being that I am able to communicate and understand and not feel stupid. Yesterday, we saw the Gaudi things, and went to this huge park he designed with a great view and lots of neat things. THen we all ate paella and had glasses of sangria. it was pretty good, alot of liquid and sugar though. after that we all went to a bar and then to a discotech till 4:00. We have another night like that tonight, after flamenco we will go dancing, but thats how they do it here. I am off exploring bymyself right now. I think i enjoy seeing the sights and doing tourist things one day, and if I can , i? like going out bymyself and trying to live a day as locals live it, and see how i can survive in a new city. Spanish is fun, i haven?t heard many lisps yet though. Theres lots of shopping here, and spain has a unique style. Alot of people went to teh beach today, but I think I will go to the beach in the french riviera and see what barcelona has to offer.
W have another long drive tommorrow, but from now on, our nights should be pretty full of stuff to do. I?m getting along well witht the group, I??m proboly the baby of the group, but people seem to enjoy me. Someimtes, i don?t like the food that we have to eat served from topdck, becuase its easy stuff that preserves under the bus, and isn?t filling or good to me. And since its not really foreign, it doens?t qualify me to try new things. Thats one other bad thing, is that even though we cook in the countries?stlyle, its not the same expirience as going out to eat and ordering an dpoeple watching. so even though its more expensive to eat out, i really enjoy it better.
ok, well its nice to hear about the?brandy?s baby and stuff,?and on credit cards, i think i have automatic payments set up, so it should just pay it.
bye bye?
