600 pictures later...

Hey everyone,

So, wé´re back from our crazy 5 day run around Spain. We went to Barcelona, a small town on the Mediterranean (Xabia, I think) Granada and Seville.

Tom and I went for a midnight swim in the Mediterranean, and in Granada a dog peed on my leg.

And we took 600 pictures. 300 are on a cd and the other 300 just got uploaded to Tom´s cousin´s computer.

We now have 1 1/2 days left, and Tom and I are off to Madrid to pick up some souvenirs.

I will, I hope, upload a bunch of pics tonight, but the rest will most likely have to wait till we´re back in BC...

Thanks for all the wonderful comments!

The sad truth

Whew. Tom and I just got back an hour ago from a whirlwind shopping spree in Madrid. We got almost all the souvenirs we needed to get, and we plan to go to the open market tomorrow morning.... that should be HUGE. Then we have to cram all the stuff we bought into our bags, figure out what to do about getting our tax money back, and prepare for our flight to London and then back to Vancouver.

Soooo... I really don´t think I´m going to get all the pics posted by then.

But here are a few to give you a taste of what we´ve been up to:

Detail on the wall of the palace in Alhambra (the entire building was like that!)

A view of the Plaza de Espana in Seville.

Stay tuned because a ton more will be here by the end of next week! (I hope, I hope)
