Dan’s Spanish Adventure!

My Adventure in Spain has Begun!

I can not believe how busy my last few days (weeks ) were! OMG, they flew by!

I left for Spain just 3 days after returning from Florida! It was quick and I felt way too rushed!

On May 12, I met 2 dear friends in the Air Canada Lounge at Toronto International Airport and I was able to share a beverage with them and a few good laughs! Shortly after my friends left for Paris, I boarded my plane and flew direct to Madrid!

I only had 2 days in Madrid, but I loved them! I plan to return to Madrid before flying home!

For some reason, the jet lag hit me bad! It doesn’t usually  have much effect on me, but I just have had no rest. I feel a cold coming on too! I hope it doesn’t hit me, but I’m not surprised as I have been running around like a mad man!

My AirBandB in Madrid was SPECTACULAR! My hosts, Leo and Mike were very kind! My room was wonderful and I loved my private bathroom! I am returning to stay with them again on my way home!

Madrid:

Magnifico Madrid! Me le gusto mucho!

I had 2 amazing days there and thoroughly enjoyed it!

You all know that I am friendly and chat to all! I met a very nice man, Dave from Chicago whilst in Madrid. Dave is taking a Spanish course in Madrid! I want to do that.

I’m ever grateful for meeting hm and having met a new friend. It was nice to go for dinner with a great person and chat. I think I’ve convinced him to do the Camino.

This morning, I boarded the train for Leon. I met 3 people who are doing El Camino too.

I’m seeing the Spanish countryside by train and it’s amazing! I’ve seen the mountains before but NOT snow capped! I knew coming in Spring instead of Summer and Autumn was a good idea!

I promise more interesting posts in the future. I just need some rest.

Adios,
Dan

KEEP WALKING!
