Goodbye Mediterranean

It has been a while. We haven't had Internet for some time. There is much to say but here is the basics. We left the east coast of Spain and traveled inland towards Madrid, and what an adventure it has been. Those stories later. This post (Food List Like Bam) was written right before we ventured inland but never sent because of lack of Internet. Here it is now. Much more to come, on our soon to be day off!

And a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Gen. As we joke she is now old with Georgia at 23 and Em 25, which leaves me the youngster at 22.

  1. Birthday Greetings to Genevieve from sunny New Jersey!! I would be happy to share a snack from anyone of your collections of food:) They all sound yummy and nutritious. Hoping the birthday girl and friends will be able to enjoy a meal that is something more than from one of your back-packs. Ha! Enjoy Madrid and splurge on some Sangria for me:)

    Love to all-

  3. Hey Girls, we've really enjoyed following your journey (even though this is my first comment) and adventures......glad you're back on the Internet and continuing the blog. What an incredible variety of weather you've seen....here it has only been cold, and possibly snow tonight. Your description of riding next to the big trucks in the teeming rain gave me the shivers! Take care and have fun!
