So I've had a busy time in London and have managed to see all the major sights: Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Parliament, Tower of London, Picadilly Circus, Leicester Square (where I saw the Harry Potter movie!), Shakespeare's Globe, the Tate Modern and so much more. But I'll admit, I am MORE than ready to come home! I miss you all so much an…

So I just arrived in London like an hour ago. Spent the whole day trying to get here amongst various levels of frustration. I split up from Wes yesterday and he's in Scotland now. Its just lit…
We're in Paris now. We took an 05:30 flight from Madrid to here. We are so tired and waiting for our rooms to be ready at the budget hotel place. I want to crash so bad. But its Bastille Day h…
I was TOTALLY there today! It was SUCH craziness. I heard at the end that 13 people got injured and three of them were in critical condition. Wes ran and he was fine but he said he loved it. H…
Today was a very lazy day in Madrid. Woke up at 12 and didn't get out of the hostel until 2. Went to the Museo del Prado and saw some amazing art. I saw the Garden of Delights and it was incre…

I'm glad you didn't actually run with the bulls but am glad you had the opportunity to experience just how crazed folks can get. Now go write a novel or something.

Just don't do the running with them. I only have to wait another 10 days or so to see you - it would be nice if you were still in one piece.
Love you
Mom

I would advice against going to the bull running even if it were free. Animal lovers do not want to see such a spectacle. Next time you want to see a bull fight? Why are you a vegetarian?
Mika
Dad
You are a writer. Ernest Hemingway was a writer. He ran with the bulls. Go run with the bulls.
Get the bus ticket, we'll pay for some - ask for a discount!

Don't forget protein. Have some eggs.
Looks like your timing is great:

I am so catching up with my tan Babi! At this moment I am tanner than I ever have been. Even my legs are tan and that is a feat that was never before imaginable. But we'll see when I get home! Love you and miss you all!

world tour!!! go for it, just give yourself more time and experience. You have three more weeks to hang around in Europe. Are you staying in Italy for a while or do you go to Spain? In Spain you can practise your Spanish.

The bike tour I went on had a tour guide who managed to give us the whole history and everything about the wall. We saw the wall and so much more. It really hits you when you have someone describing everything to you. We want to go back to some of these places but we might not have time...such a redundant problem...
And its not the money problem with the blog, its the time and availability of a computer. When we were in Paris we were staying in 2 star hotels and they didn´t have the internet so we had to go on a hunt for a cafe and we didn´t want to waste too much time out of our day...
