Catch up














Just finished my 10 day national holiday the call, Puentas. Im about to go school tomorrow for the first time in ages....well.....10 days.

At the beginning of theis holiday me and mates planned everything, From going home to England, to going to Barcelona.....nada. Between us no-one could get anything properly organized and none of us had any money to do it.

We went to the royal palace, Placio real.....but it was closed.

We went to a remote sister city, Segovia to eat Conchillo (roasted pig with apple in its mouth the only place left on earth that does it......Didnt get to eat it.

Aimed to go to the Prado museam....but as usual football took over (couldnt see it over rulling chelsea vs Arsenal anyway)

Aimed to go to Salamanca, (really posh area of Madrid)....You know the pattern by now.

So what did we do? go out, play pro evo 6, and doss around.

I suppose this is a good thing so when you guys come up theres actually places left to take you that haven't been to but that is still shocking.

Played football today, 11-a-side, i scored a hat-trick, got blasted in the nuts, and scored a goal in 6-a-side too.

Next i got football, wednesday night, and thursday night.

Hopefully coming home on the 21st by the way so ill see you soon.

More drama as my mate got his coat pinched which contained his wallet, keys, and passport. A crucial reminder if anything that Madrid is one of the top spots for Aladin 2.


Stay tuned for more updates.

Pictures of the palace, some friends, and the Segovia aqueduct, plus the place where apparently they do the best conchillo.
