Barcelona: This city isnt letting go of me...still

Today was supposed to be our last day here....
Nope. Stayed out late lastnight at some cheesy club, saw Guido though. He is a really awesome guy. He was pretty much the only reason why i went out last night. This morning we woke up, a bunch of people stayed in our room lastnight. After the club we all came back here and we just chilled in our room talking, it was really nice cause the last thing i remember before i fell asleep was laughing, so i laughed myself to sleep lastnight. But pretty much lastnight we were talking at about 6 in morning about how we were going to be woken up at 10 in the morning for check out, and we just couldnt deal with that so we decided to stay one more night. Then this guy that we met from Chicago, Derek, told us there is a Futbol (Soccer) game on saturday that he was going to. The moment he said that i had already decided that i was going. No doubt. So thats on saturday, added three more nights right there in Barcelona. Then there is Sunday, Spain is reall wierd with their customs and culture and trains may or may not run on some days, and if anything they will not run on a sunday. So 4 more nights in Barcelona. We were only going to stay 3 nights here...here it is 8 nights, and we are still adding on...

What is with this place? Everyone is so nice, everything is so nice, and everything has just fallen into place here. Nothing negative has happened yet here in Barcelona. Thats basically all im waiting for. On the LIpari Island we kept adding nights saying it was going to be hard to leave. Then we get stranded on an island sleeping on the beach, the next day we did everything in our power to get off those islands. We were certainly ready! But here in Barcelona, Im not ready to leave yet. It jst keeps getting better and better. But Monday though, iv got to keep going, what ever day that is im just going straight from Barcelona to Lisbon. I have to continue my journey. I can and WILL come back here to Barcelona just to be in Barcelona, so thats when i will live this life again, but as for right now i have to travel some more. Have some fun in other cities!

Oh did i mention the hostel here is also only 13 euro a night? Thats perfect. Thats an awesome reason just right there to keep me here.

But again, i have to keep traveling, thats why i came here and thats what im going to do. Lisbon, Portugal is next!

This morning the house mom i guess you can call her, Linda, she's in her 60's im sure, was here making breakfast just like every morning. I woke up after about 3 hours of sleep and went out to get more nights, Linda came out of the kitchen yelling "Sit sit! You eat breakfast! I make you all the toast you want this morning!! Im going to miss you so much!!" Then i said i was actually getting more nights and she turned up the music, some reggae music and she was like "Alright!!! Then we celebrate, you either eatin or you dancin!!" At the time i was the only one in the kitchen. But everytime someone else showed up Linda was sure to tell them the rules for the morning "You either eat'n or you dancin!!" It was quite the scnenerio to wake up to! But Linda makes some MEAN batches of toast and jam, i tell you what! With some tea and orange juice, iv come to appreciate this breakfast more than anything in the morning!!

Iv got 4 more mornings of it too. Sounds good to me.
