El viaje empezo! (And my trip begins!)

Hola a todos,
I am here in Spain now with very few complications. Madrid is very nice, all the buildings are so pretty and there is a nice park only a block from the hotel. We went on a panoramic city tour last night and passed the prettiest plazas and fountains. Today was such a perfect day to go out walking around the city and exploring. There is no snow here :) We went to the Reina Sofia and the Prado museums today and some of the art work there has incredible meanings behind it and I definitely understand art a lot better now. We got to see some Picasso, Velasquez, Goya, and lots of Dali. They are all so incredible. My spanish is still a little rusty but I haven't had too much practice yet. Although I like Madrid I am so excited to actually arrive in Sevilla. We are going to Toledo tomorrow and then off to Sevilla! The food is very good here but the late eating times of 2 for lunch and 10 for dinner with an early breakfast are very hard to adjust to. I promise to put up pictures soon! I miss you all
