Current Whereabouts

We have 2 days to catch up on our blog on Lisbon. Sorry due to my jetlag brain( I am the only one with this problem), words just won't come out of my tired brain. HA! It s eems I am almost there with this jetlag thing.  I just hope it won't get screwed up again when we fly to Egypt.
Guess what folks! We are currently in Madrid, Spain.
Compare to Lisbon, Madrid is a bigger city with the big city flare.  We have been pretty lucky so far.  How so? Well, when we got to Lisbon the public transportation were FREE! and now in Madrid, they are having this "La Noche En Blanco" today.  La Noche En Blanco, is today and from 9pm tonight they are having artist all around the city center, from Paseo Del Prado to Puerta Del Sol to the Palacio Real.  Artist who paints, dance, act, Jazz; you name it they have it for FREE!  Not only free entertainments but even ALL of the museums are free all night till the morning hours(5am).  The city calls it "No one shall sleep tonight".  We slept in late this morning so we can be up all night checking out the festivities.
Will have pictures soon.
Note:  We both agreed Lisbon has friendlier people.  And whole lot cheaper!!! Tapas hopping aren't cheap, as we found out.
