Ok, so, today me and my dad went to Madrid to go get our art freak on, and it’s super late, so I wont tell you all the details, but, in a nutshell.

1. Goya is AWESOME.
2. Goya’s black paintings were *very* creepy.
3. Goya’s Saturn Devouring His Son is *very very very super* creepy
4. Picasso’s Guernica is an amzing Painting, and is something you *must* see before you die, assuming you can get around to it.
5. Salvador Dali was mucho loco!
6. Art is very very kool!!

Hopefuly I will post more later when my eyes can stay open for more than 2 seconds at a time, laterz!

Day 2 In Spain Pt. 2 and begining of Day 3 Pt. 1

So we did end up going to the cathedral, and we spent at least 2 or 3 hours in there just walking around, it is an amazing building with so much amazing artwork, and I’d totally point you to some photos of it, except no one’s allowed to take photography in there, so I can’t, sorry. In short, it was worth the 7 Euroes we paid. Then we wandered aimlessly for a while, much to my discontent due to the fact that I wanted to write postcards, but t was kool seeing everything. Then we did come home, my mum slept, and I wrote postcards while my dad geeked out over photos, as usual. We then eventualy headed out for food, but ran into some difficulty seeing as most people here don’t eat dinner until about 9-12pm, and we wanted food at 8pm, so it was difficult, but we just ended up going to the same place we ate last night, and it was very good, and we then walked home and promptly fell asleep.

This morning we woke up, and me and my dad went out for breakfast, and we went to a bakery that sold very sugary desserty foods that passed as breakfast in our case, so we felt happy about that, and now I’m currently here writing this, so I have no clue what’s happening next, but we have learned that eating a BIG lunch at about 2-3 is the thing over here, so that’s our plan to try something like that today, but kinda hard given that it’s sunday and most things are closed, but ah well, we shall try!
