Madrid!!!

Madrid! What a city.. Dee lost her wallet at the train station so we had to go to the police station which turned into quite the situation. Dee, in a panic, was talking so fast that you couldn't understand her even if the police understood English. Whist waiting for dee we decided it was drink on time so tried to ask the officer if he could tell her we would be in the pub.. This didn't translate too well as he thought he were asking if they wanted to come drink with us. Soon after jonesy used his google translator to tell the officer what we meant and we set off to the bar.. But this bar was a strip bar! Giggling we went back to the police officers and using charades we explained jonesy was keen but Emma and weren't so were was a normal bar without nude women! The next couple of days was filled with great company from hostel folk! Lara, a lovely girl from Germany, located a salsa/samba bar where we were given free drinks pretty much all night! Or 
if we did buy a drink it wad 2 euro! After starting off a robot swaying side from side I ended up.. In my mind.. Thinking u had the hang of it! Ah when in Madrid! After tasting chiros and locating a vegetarian restaurant my Madrid trip had come sadly to an end.. So off to the airport! Ah before you judge me. I'm stupid and have never done this on my own.. So in panic and follow some other guy with a giant backpack I went through the security check not realising you gotta check your luggage in first and not one! Not one, single worker, traveller, anyone at all told me this so they let me go through.. And only after I asked information where was my flight and where do I check this massive bag over 10kilos in did they correct me! A walk through two fricken terminals later I checked my bag in and went to my flight! I laugh now but "hablo engless?" can only get you so far! But safe and sound some lady said something in Italian on the plane.. Giggle and smile! Ah!
