a) flight 2 hrs delayed from departure due to FREAK LIGHTNING STORM in NY that lasted...oh...since we were taxiing to depart till oh...2 hours after on the runway.
b) arrived in london 3 hrs late thus missing flight switch. but was quickly given new flight.
c) arrive in madrid 5 hours late. bags took 2 hours to unload... and LO AND BEHOLD, my ONE AND ONLY BACKPACK gets lost. (british airways... i chose you for reliability. b*tch failed me!)
d) stood in line for AMEX cash exchange. annoying americans before me took a good HOUR to cambiar la moneda. no clue why. it only should take 5 mins. ugh thus was stuck in AIRPORT till 8pm. no clothes. no ammenities. just me, myself, and my TATE MODERN tarp little bag and hostel accomodations. thank goodness i´d decided to take my eurail pass with me.
ahh well, as Shakespeare would teach us, All´s well that ends well.
Was able to see AARON HEREDIA. Didnt get to do much. >Hostel was okay, no bed bugs, thank goodness. Now just wishing my bag would arrive. I pray I pray it does!
More later. Now walking around madrid for a bit before heading up to Madrid Chamartin station to take overnight HOTEL TRAIN to Lisbon, Portugal.
PS - mi espanol es MERDE. *sigh*
