11/20/04

Well, we bust.
Getting to spain is proving to be more difficult then we anticipated. We took it easy this moring at the hostel. We both ate as much as we could muster for our comp breakfast at the hostel and then went upstairs to get our stuff together. Rearranging our thigs within our things seems to have helped consolidate because loading our bikes seems successfully w4ent quicker this time. We rode to central station to find out about tickets. Well there was a 40 minute line at the bus ticket station because Cannabis Cup starts this weekend and there are like 10,000-20,000 extra americans, canadians, british, etc. Anyway, we found out that no bikes are allowed on the busses. Which is fine we thought because we can just take a train. When we got to the train station we found out that not only would it cost us 225 euro apiece(which is more then our plane tickets cost) but that we cannot take our bikes with us on the train(unless it is paked up in a luggage type form similar to how we took them on the plane) Well when we found this out we just sat down on the floor in the train station for a while feeling sad because we were so looking forward to getting out of this cold rainy country and experincing more of the world. Now we are going to figure out a way to get south.
