It's Christmas time in Madriiiiiid...and I love it. All the lights are up and there are actually men in the streets "roasting chessnuts over an open fire"...and little quartets singing Christmas music...Speeeeeaking of people singing....on the metro, people sing and play guitar or sing along with these kareoke machine things...and I mean, its pretty crowded in there so you have no choice but to watch them and make awkward eye contact...and then you feel guilty not giving them money because you've made eye contact..Miriam has such an issue with these people haha...she says, "WHYYY do you think I want to listen to you? Whyyy do you think you are worthy of my time??"
*Its my last weekend in Madrid (Barcelona..then Paris..then home)...and it's been really relaxing and nice not traveling for once in a while. Today, Miriam and Sarah and I went to the Reina Sofia Museum..its one of the main museums in Madrid and one of the best art museums in Europe...we saw works by Picasso, Moro, Dali...it was really cool. After...we went to Starbucks and walked around Retiro Park...Ohhh Madridddd..how i'll miss you.
