Spain Journal -Feb 25th- Madrid

Good Day World,

Day 2- Madrid
 The group spent most of day two traveling.  We arrived in Madrid, 7 hours later then planned minus two of the people in our group and our luggage because of a dent in a plane. However we all arrived safe and sound, that is truly all that matters. Being that we arrived late to Madrid and that our luggage didn't come with us. We were able to really look around and take in all the sites and sounds of Madrid.

When we finally got settled from getting on the metro(subway) after all that traveling, I kinda of just looked around at all the faces on the subway. How packed it was, how the people on the metro do this day in and day out to get where they have to go. It's amazing to me. When we got to our stop, we come up on this corner of the street and it was like wow.. I felt like I had walked into New York City. It had that kind of feel to it. It was loud and busy, but yet it was inviting. We finally got to our hostel which was nice, but the room was very small for four people. Our room was nice though it had a baloney. We decided to go look for some clothes because our luggage.


The Hostel in Madrid

Getting ready to go shopping for clothes.
While we were out walking around looking for clothes. We stop by this guy playing music on glasses. It was really awesome. We could even hear him from our hostel room. It was interesting because you wouldn't hear that kinda of thing in Detroit. More like car stereos or people just being loud. When we were walking around as well, I noticed that people are a lot more passionate in Spain then they are in the states.  Maybe we need to be more loving.
