Halfway

Hola, this comes to you from Madrid. I´ll try to be both detailed and succinct, which is a tall order for me, but it will exercise my journalistic muscles.

This is the morning--mental space--of Day 6 and the afternoon--real-time space--of Day 6 of my last minute Christmas escape to wherever the wind takes me. We´re in Madrid today, staying with a friend of Robyn´s, Kenny.

We are forever grateful to Kenny for providing us with his bed, his shower, his fridge and his internet access--all of which we have gone without since we left England on the 11th. We arrived in Madrid yesterday afternoon, after a sixteen-hour train ride from Paris. So, today is for recuperation and I´ve got a bit of time to play catch up on my blog. We´ll see how far I get.
