  • Greetings from the land of the eternal Spring

    AKA the Canary Islands. Have not seen one playoff game or talked to a single American, but the Brits here are pissed about one of their Liverpool lads signing with the LA Glaxy. Spent three days in Madrid before coming here. Great city with lots of history. And they sure love their Real Madrid footballers.

    Would recommend this place to anyone for vacation.

      That would be Steven Gerrard (captain of the Reds)

      going to be 35 and that's where the big bucks are for aging players. Many EPL players will do same
      Enjoy the trip!!

          Her family is from La Gomera. If you go there they will think you are Wilt Chamberirish. We saw a men's clothing store there that we thought were children's clothes.

            You bastard! Enjoy!

            You're telling me you would rather be doing this than trekking into Stockton every day? It was single digits in Galloway Twp this morning.

                Barcelona with its Las Ramblas even better. But Madrid is excellent as well.

                    Only problam with Barcelona is that it is getting overrun by tourists these days.

                    Somewhere in Toledo there is an Eagles hat I lost there. Did you go to the top of the church tower? Great view.

                      Yea, wondered with which team he would sign.

                      Just knew it wouldn't be with the Union.

                        despite the tourists, i loved the mediterranean feel of the city. such a cool place.

                        didn't go to the top of the church tower, i'll put that on the list for my next visit. i might go for a masters in madrid this fall.

                          It's not the tower in the cathedral. It is in a different church (San Roman). My Madrileño friends told me about it.

                          Check out Málaga sometime, especially if you are looking for a place with nice weather in the winter.
