So, I've been meaning to write about my Spain trip for awhile. I will talk about what I did in Spain in the next post, but first I thought I'd share a couple of amusing things about traveling to and from Spain. I am NOT afraid of flying at all, but I am an extremely nervous person by nature, and all of the things that can go wrong while traveling (missed flights, lost luggage, getting lost in general..) are always going round and round my head while traveling. Anyways, without further ado: my list of things that did and did not happen while traveling to and from Spain!
Things that did NOT happen:
-stewardess cornering an old guy in the plane bathroom who is suddenly revealed as a young hot guy (this phenomenon was made famous by Britney Spears's song Toxic! http://vimeo.com/6997840 Okay, it was probably invented in the song Toxic....maybe this only funny to people in Bear and I's generation...;) )
-I lost any piece of luggage. I only packed cabin bags!
-I didn't know enough Spanish to get through customs. I only needed to know Hola and Gracias, because Spanish customs aren't as stupidly annoying as US customs!
-I got on the wrong train. Public transport is much easier in Europe!
-I missed my flight. Nope, got there two hours early, in time to have a chai and a tomato/pesto/mozz toastie!
Things that DID happen:
-my phone ran out of minutes, and I thought I would have to sleep in the airport
-I waited about an hour and half for Adam to come and pick me up because of problems with el ave, and confusion over where I was supposed to meet him
-I FREAKED OUT when I saw Adam! it didn't even feel real.
-we missed the ave. true, sad story. We had to pay about ninety euros for a taxi.
-We got to Toledo, finally! and I got a tomato, mozz and olive oil bocadillo (I have an addiction to sandwiches with mozz and tomato in them...its quite a problem)
Anyways, thats about it for now! I will write about my Spain trip more later! It was the best four days of my life :)
