Also, we are generally using Rick Steves´ guidebooks, and he has these walking tours that we take sometimes, around cities or through major sights--like through the Prado yesterday. And the only Rick Steves walking tour we have not gotten lost on was a five-minute walk down one street, through a plaza, and up another street. Every single other one we have gotten lost, sometimes hopelessly lost. In fact, in Sevilla´s Barrio Santa Cruz, we got lost on a walking tour one day, and the next day we were sitting in a plaza eating lunch and saw a couple walking around with a Rick Steves book saying "I think we missed that turn..." right where we had gotten lost the day before.
We are off to Salamanca tomorrow, where we expect to rest up quite a bit and hear the locals randomly burst into song! I´m pretty excited about that... I´ll let yáll know when it happens!

Taken directly from the wikipedia entry on mullets:
"Despite its reputation, the mullet remains a moderately popular hairstyle among certain social groups in various Western countries. It is specially popular and even considered to be modern (vintage retro) in Portugal and in Spain and can be widely identified in the streets of cities like Barcelona.Also in Spain, the mullet is associated with two different ethnic groups: young Gypsies and young separatists from the Basque Country."
Dad these pictures are terrifying.
I'm all for better pictures. Send me some.
