Greetings from Madrid

Flying first class from LA to London is really nice! My dvd screen in my original seat was not working so, I got pulled to first class for the whole flight but I almost lost my flight to Madrid for reason I prefer not to say :). My taxi ride from Barajas to my place was nice but I looked at the city with different eyes: not tourist but somebody who will live here.

Today was a full morning of running errands: buy hangers, open a bank account, pick up mail and eat. Of course I got lost when looking for the Correos but I had to get out of my shell and ask people. I did and found out that Madrileños are not so bad: I asked older people for help.

In order for opening a bank account I have to wait to get my NIE number which is similar to the US social security but primarily to have all of your information and track you down (If I`m mistaken, please correct). Bought a cellular chip for my phone, I hope it all works out and I don`t have to spend on a phone. Still looking for an apartment........

We had beautiful weather today, not too hot & not cold. Fall here we come.

All day was full of observing kids because I wonder how my kids will be like. Of course it will take time for them to warm up with me but just having a little eye view of how children interact. I can;t wait to start my orientation which begins September 24th in Las Acacias.

I miss my parent`s a lot, hearing their voice helps me and knowing that they are doing well. My Christmas plans have changed since now they want me in LA and I want to also: to Kayak.com it is.

Ciao for now!
