November 3rd, 2004

Ola! We are in Spain! We caught a train from La Rochelle to Barcelona which was very interesting... it was a night train and when we first got on Bri tried to recline her seat but smooshed the little man sleeping on the floor behind it. He yelled at her in French. There was also a drunk man running around the train sitting in other people’s seats. He stuck his butt in Erns face and then sometimes crawled down by his bag behind Steph's seat. He was weird.

We kept taking trains right through Barcelona and onto Alicante, which is on the southeastern coast of Spain. And it is the most beautiful place in the whole world. We arrived late last night and walked to our hostel. It was a beautiful walk! There were palm trees everywhere and white marble sidewalks! Our hostel is also very lovely and we have our own room! We also have a balcony that overlooks a fortress and a beautiful church. And we are two minutes from the beach! We went today for a few hours and it was about 25 degrees! We got to use our bathing suits for the first time! We also got to wear skirts and flipflops. We love our lives here.

We are planning on staying here for about five nights or so. We want to try to get to Portugal but we will see how it goes! Spain is awesome! We are having a party here tomorrow night! You are all invited! Woo fiesta!
