Chocolat y Churros


We have had a fun few days in Madrid. We switched from coffee to hot chocolate as our beverage. The chocolate is thick and used to dip churros (kind of like waffles, but not as heavy).

We went to a bullfight last evening and left after two fights. Steve has a new cause to fight - not to outlaw bullfighting, but to make it more fair for the bull. It was actually quite sad watching the bull "fight" - he was already injured before he came out. Then it is six against one. More on that later.

Today, we walked to Retiro Park and had a nice lunch and walked around the city. Hopefully, tonight we will get some Tapas.

  3. Hey guys. I will try to take some more pictures of Kelly, its hard though because I am not allowed to use the camera unsupervised by Kelly. Its hard to take pictures of a subject when they are over your shoulder. I am just kidding, I took a few yesterday, hopefully they will make it to the picture page.

    Hey Erin, No we didn't bring a videocamera, we wish we did now, but the camera works great, and it probably is alot easier. Plus, with hostals it is hard too charge your electronic items. Tell Travis we say Hello.
