The two days I was in Madrid was so awesome. MJ and I went out Monday night, just wandering around and taking pictures. The second day, she had classes and I didn't mind just staying at her house and relaxing before heading down to Sevilla. Her mom is such a great cook and it was wonderful to have home-cooked meals after traveling for so long. I never had salad with fried bread-crutons before but yum yum yum. Mmm.
Okay, I obviously need to learn Spanish quickly because I couldn't talk to MJ's mom in Spanish (her mom doesn't speak much english and I wasn't going to ask her to speak english to me. That's rude!). So in an effort, Tuesday at lunch, I tried to speak some Spanish and... desperately asked her mom if she could speak French.
I took the train down to Sevilla on Wednesday. MJ's mom packed me a sandwich which was delish and MJ and I worked our way to the train station.
I felt like Xavier in L'Auberge Espagnole carrying all my stuff. Got a cab and went straight to homestay.
Anyway, update later but here's some pics from Madrid last week!
