When we last left off I was mortified at the sight of the bull fights. since then a lot has happened.

We both got hair cuts, and I think it was the consencious that they were the best hair cuts ever! Ive never had someone work so meticuliously on a buz cut before. he was a hair cutting G-D.

We went to Toledo, and both thought it was very nice, but nothing too speacial. I would copare it to the Venice of Spain. It was very pritty, and very scenic, but there were tons of tourists, and you get boared after about three hours.

After Toledo, we just relqxed in Madrid for a while, and tried to live it up. We ate Stek and eggs like every meal (I dont know why, they just serve it everywhere, and everyone orders it. So, the only reasonable thing to do was join in). Other than that Madrid wasnt too eventfull. we tried to go out, but apparently in Spain the bars dont even open untill 2am, and no one goes untill like 3 or 4, so we couldnt make it. We left not thinking too highly of Madrid.

Then we went to Barcelona. The train to Barcelona was the worst thing of all time. it was six people in a room the size of a full size bed, and we were all facing eachother. No one slep and everone hated everyone else by the end of it. So we got inb, only to discover that our hostel is about an hour and a half walf from the center of town. of cource we only discovered that after we walked it. It was terrible.

Despite the poor statr to Barcelona I think we both really liked it. The city was very friendly, and the street preformers were of the highest quqlity. Overall I would recomend Barcelona over Madrid any day.

We also went to the beach in Barcelona. Needless to say the water, and sand were nice; What is needed to be said was tha apparently in Spain it just ok for girls to be naked, and apperently the rule is the more attractive you are the more likley it will be that you will be naked. It goes without question that this added to the enjoyment of the Barcelona Beaches.

Finally we left Barcelona on a poor note. My right eye becam terribly infected. It was very swollen, and bright red. I went to a medical Clinic in Barcelona, where I saw a doctor who spoke no english. I finally got him to write me a prescription for antibiotics, and went to the local pharmacy. Once ther I asked the pharmacist if the medication would be cheap. She laughed and said of cource not this is very expensive. She then proceeded to tell me that both cost €5. I laughed and blessed tha country which has socialized medicen. My doctor was free, and the medicine was dirt cheap. Anyway, my eye is better now for thoes who are wondering.

Our final stop in pain was Pamplona for the festival de San Firmin (running with the bulls, or Jews depending on whoes perspective mine or the bulls). No words can describe it. It was an experience that everyone should have. the running was awsome, I ran about a yard from a 650 Kg bull.

(us right before running)

The rest of the two days we spent there were so much fun the whole city if a giant festival, and everone is in the streets singing and dancing. we joined up with noumerious parades, and celibrated with like 20,000 people. Ive never seen anything like it. Even Jake who lived in New Orleans, and has been to Marti Gras multiple times said Pamplona was ten times the size of Marti Gras, and 100 times more festive. I dont even know what else to say, except you all should plan to go next year, it is an experience.

Well, that brings us to now, I left Jake, and am on my own now. I am in Paris now, but its very ranny and cold, so Im not sure what sight seeing Ill do in the rain. Ill be here untill the 15th(Bastille Day is the &'th, so that should be awsome), then I go to Brussles for thre ays, and back home on the 18th.

So, I guess Ill see how the whole solo thing works out.
