What happened to Spain??!!?!?
Tuesday, September 29, 2009
Okay, so some of you are probably wondering what the hell happened to us going to Spain. Well, here's the story:
After going through Italy we spent over 6 hours in a train at a time. Certainly it was an experience, but not a pleasant one I can assure you. So that kinda scratched the idea of 30 hours of train to and from Spain within 4 days. So then we decided we would fly down. Unfortunately due to the time we started to look for tickets we couldn't find anything under 230Euros (approx. $336) per person!! That would have been over 700 just for the trip there and backs, to stay 2 days. Also not a desirable option. But, the effort did not stop there, we had also looked at ships, but unfortunately non were leaving from Nice, and those that we found were cruise ships, and as fun as that may have been, it would have taken over 2 weeks to get there!
So unfortunately we were not able to go to Spain, which I am still extremely disappointed about due to the fact that we were going to meet my friend Sam there. I was sooooo looking forward to that, and after all the anticipation, I think I was the most disappointed of all. Now we will have to reschedule and plan a little bit ahead of time. Which means we'll all have to come back at the same time, you hear that Sam?? Meeting in Spain, for real this time, next year!! We'll swim there if necessary haha.
On a somewhat positive note, not going was good because we were able to help my family with a rather large leak in the house. Good thing we've only had 3 days of rain :0) ...
So there's the whole story, I'm really disappointed, but I promise we will make it up.
