Well my hips are a little bruised and my shoulders are a little sore but I made it to Spain! I spent most of the day wandering the streets trying to find an open bank. The bank search was a bust, but in the meantime I was reminded why I love this country so much- it is so beautiful here. It seems like every other building is some ancient museum or palace or plaza. The lack of street signs and the streets´ skewed layout are a recipe for getting lost, but I think getting lost is the best way to travel. You´ll never find what you weren´t looking for without getting lost, and I did my fair share of that today.
I ate a late lunch on the beautiful Plaza Mayor watching painters put the plaza on canvas and guessing the nationalities of all the tourists based on footwear. Tomorrow I´ll head for the museums and maybe siesta in the park. Can´t wait...
