Cirque du Soleil in Toronto!

Saltimbanco returns! In August 2008. Colour me excited! Kooza wasn't as great as Mystere, but I hope the Italian flavor of Saltimbanco will add an extra touch. I also plan to go to Las Vegas again this year, so I can see ALL the Cirque shows!

"I've got your letter, You've got my song"

Recap of Spain......

Me and two girls from Greece (as well as one person from Mexico) caught the plane to Madrid, to meet up with everyone from the residence who was arriving from Portugal.  They chose to not stay at a hostel the whole time in Portugal, and opting for the bus station!  
As for Madrid, it's a beautiful city.
  
The large size reminded me at times of North America!  The architecture's beautiful!  Though I hear Barcelona's even more beautiful, and that would be for the next time I'm going to Spain (possibly April).
 
The food is fantastic as well, our first meal being at the Museo del Jamon (which means a LOT of ham)!
 

The second day  I took the train to Valencia to meet up with Mandy (from ACI). Walking the streets at night in Valencia was kinda shady, but I got there nonetheless. We spent the rest of the day walking, at the beach with people from the hostel, dinner (the best paella ever), and the night at a club!
