Arriving in Spain-Arroyomolinos.
Trip started on 11. July When I and my love Miguel- went from Latvia to Spain. We flew from Riga to Munich and then from Munich to Madrid. That is pitty that there is no direct flight froom Latvia to Madrid with AirBaltic. But anyway- in these flights I first felt so big turbulence, what made me not so comfortable, but thatks to God with me was my love and I felt support:) When we arrived in Munchen airport I was so surprised how big is airport. And we did not had so much time to go to our connecting flight around 30 minutes, so you reallly need good orientation skills to find everything fast. Luckuly we found it very fast. Flight from Munchen with Lufthansa I liked very much, becuase service is very good and lunch what they offered was very nice- pasta. Njammi.
In Madrid airport Miguel's sister and brother in law waited us and took us to Arroyomolinos, where Miguel lives. Arroyomolinos is very nice quiet town near Madrid. I was surprised how clean is city and fountains there. I come from small town next to Riga and it was interesting to compare. And I can say my town fountain is nothing if you compare with Arroyomolinos, despite I think inhabitants in Arroyomolinos already get used to these thinks and perceive them as ordinar.
Biggest surprise for me was swimming pool, what almost everybody had in their garden. But I think in Spain it is must to have swimming pool, becauase weather is quite hot.
I had very warm welcome from Miguel's family and of course amazing delicious spanish food. But that is another story.
In pictures I saw Miguel's dog Busillo and I had image that he is quite big,but when I saw him in reality I was surprised, becuase he is small doggy. But so cuteee, all the time you want to fuffle up him.
That is how I remember my first day in Spain.

how are you? I have just read your post on blog. I have not heard from about your for some time, I thought that you will not write there any more – good that you did not stop as e.g. Miguel did :)
So you are in Spain now? Are you there for a visit with Miguel or are you already staying for that volunteer project? How did it work out with your family and their opinion to this project? Did they agree finally? I hope they did...
I can imagine how uncomfortable you were feeling with those turbulences, I hate when the plane starts moving from side to side. Last time when it happened to me was in spring on the way from Edinburgh and it was really something. Not that much for turbulences itself but for the atmosphere in the plain. They switched lights off and although nothing was happening for some time, some child started crying. They few turbulences came and somebody creamed few times – it was like good beginning of some scary move. :) Fortunately there was nothing more and even that child stopped crying (and I bought a shot of whisky – for the first time on the plain:-))
Can you speak already some Spanish with Miguel or his family (are you able to say Arroyomolinos at one:-))? Or has he learned any Latvian? ;)
I do not enjoy this summer very much because I try to finish my studies on one hand and am too lazy on the other hand.:) Well, but finally I managed to write my theses and if I make myself to study a bit until the middle of September, may get that fucking degree. :-) I have a bottle of salmiakki vodka (the black one – got it from Jaana before she left Prague, do you remember her? She used to be our schoolmate on some lectures) and will open it if I pass these exams.
Pfff, now I found out I do not have your e-mail address. .-))) So I hope that you will not mind me posting it here.
I wish you to enjoy all the other days in Spain as much as you have enjoyed the first one.
Ciao!

Hi, ducky #2 ^^
Hey, I thought It's the pool of my friends. It looks sooo much :) I guess It's just really popular this kind of fences. I'm glad you liked it in Spain.
