bonjour and hola from barcelona cause the catolonian spanish is like a mixture of french and spanish. the guggenheim at bilbao was one giant orgasm and worth the pains of getting there, missing our train and having to take a cab to the next train station and being on an overnite train with an extremely loud snorer. we got a great one room with a bathroom for 40 euros in bilbao and we watched the simpsons in spanish o yeah. the next days train ride to barcelona was pleasent and then some canadians we made friends with invited us to have christmas dinner with them and spend the nite. canadians are great. barcelona is so awesome we decided to stay an extra day. our hostel is right on la rambla which is a main drag with fruit and flower vendors, weirdo street performers, and chinchilla and bunny vendors!!!! all right outside our door. we cant get enough gaudi and the atmosphere here is so much more laid back than that of madrid. love love barcelona. we went to the beach tonite which was really beautiful and gorged ourselves on fruit and brie from the open air market down the street. everyone go to barcy as i like to call it. not really. tomorrow we really leave for lyon, a new country and a new language. there we get our own apt thanks to jakes uncle simone and to meet his french family. good food here i come. also i think it will snow there. after lyon we will head for amsterdam, we are so excited to see our friends again, billy greg and jen flew in today, the new year will be awesome. also ryan has somehow managed an eastern european girlfriend. heh. aaron and irvin please send mailing addresses. later suckers. p.s. sucks about reggie white dying we are in like total shock.
