Hola de Espana!
I am sitting in the lobby of my hotel because my room is not ready yet. Here it's 12:30 pm, but my brain is telling me it's 3:30 am and I need sleep now! I'm going to take a nap as soon as they give me my room key.
Anyway, I won't post about the flight because it was boring and consisted of watching several mediocre movies and having the lady behind push on my chair through the entire flight.
Madrid is very cool, at least what I saw of it from the bus. I took pictures from the window and I can't wait to post them here. The roundabouts all have big beautiful fountains in the middle and all the buildings have apartments on the upper floors. There is a lot of graffiti. It's not overwhelming but definitely more than even San Francisco. I didn't take pictures of the graffiti to share; I hope you're not too disappointed. My program director described our hotel as "the sh*t" because it is right in the middle of downtown and next to the Prado. Tonight we're going on a panoramic tour of the city and we'll have a meeting to discuss culture. But right now I'm going to go take a nap because they finally gave me my room key! Sweet dreams all!
