espana pt 1

after landing here a few days ago ive rested enough to say that america is the best.though i feel pretty comfortable here as i can get by well with the language untill someone starts talking in full speed-then i tell them to speak slowly & somehow it all works out. i just wish that i paid more attention in spanish class so i could have been fluent in it not just get by. language opens up the world for you. that & it is a pretty language. & i feel nice when i can get my point across or order food without pork. thats another thing-spaniards love their pork. ahhhh-one must be so careful to make sure that its not in it. words for that in all ways were memorized with the word no in front of it the first day i got here.
people here are beautiful & having ms. s around makes everyone act nicer to us. spain is much more friendlier than i remember france to be. our hotel in madrid is located very well in the centre so its fab. 6 days in madrid & alot of it spent walking has done my body good. i love walking around. theres always something to see, something to drink, something to eat.

my poor ms. s has been a trooper but today she has fallen ill due to one of her big teeth coming in. so its been a bit tough with her. she is very homesick as well. poor her. she doesnt understand why we cant just drive back home already. but before that up next is sevilla. here we go again...
