Great thread goin on here. Have fun and be safe down there. I know what you mean about the bombings and shit. I went to spain for 3 months, i spoke no spanish and was there for about 2 weeks when the Presidential Elections started. I was living in Alcala De Henares(outside Madrid) going to a language school when the owner(complete ripoff fuckface btw)comes in and starts talking in Spanish, everyone gets all excited(in a bad way) and start acting really fuckin weird. Of course, i speak no spansih so im like WTF is goin on. Well the train leaving my city going to Madrid had been blown up by Moroccan extremists, killed like 200 ppl i believe.

Crazy part is, the van with the detonators and audio tape of the terrorists was found rigth by the train station, less than 2 blocks from my apartment/school. I might have walked outside that morning to get coffee and the coffee shop and they could have drove right by me. Was pretty crazy.
