If u aint got wheels , then your a no one in bordeaux
On Wednesday we had the intention to rent bikes out. We had seen these before u can rent them out for €1 a day, we tried our best to use the machines turns out they dont like foriegn cards and they also make a deposit of €200 per bike. We had put our cards in several times so lets hope we can still use them later.
We decided to walk down the river, coping sporting his carlotti oldham vest again determined to get a tan. Everyone was on rollerblades or bikes or skateboards, seems we were the loosers with no wheels. We walked passed a bridge that hanged over the river it was unfinished or maybe it was meant to be like that, we just assumed the builder went on strike again, typical french.
We had a drink in a bar and realised that we would be in barcelona for the inter milan game so immediatly rushed to the local internet cafe to try and book tickets. No luck unless we were gonna pay €350 each, ouch!
We decided since the game was on we needed to book our accomodation , we realised that since this trip we had actually only stayed in a hostel for 5 nights, we are now luxury backpackers as we have checked ourselves into 4* hotels for the whole of spain, thats a 5/18 nights hostel to hotel ratio. Our secret , im not telling you but needless to say they worked out the same as a hostel so why not live it up!
We went to find the eurolines depot for the bus we were getting to madrid, we walked over a bridge and found a hooker on the corner, well we think she was she had a short white dress on with michellen style hangovers sporting a very visible black thong! The aldo nav had again found either a sex shop or the brothel. We decided to walk back grab a shower and hit the town.
We wandered in town down these fancy restaurants it was so easy to spend €30 each down there so we walked and found an intalian. While we were there a crazy lady walked passed about 10 times we made a game out of how many times we would see her. The total meal for 2 came to €31 it was well cheap and tasty too, i had chicken and copey had a roma pizza. I ordered gateux basque thinking it was a chocolate gatuex, to my suprise i ended up with a cake with what tasted like it hasvmarsipan inside, it was nice so ate it anyway!
Well my next updates may not be until we are settled in madrid on friday. We are going to a wine vineyard thursday then catching a night bus to madrid.
