So, Madrid brought our tour of Europe to an end. It was a sort of bittersweet one- we are for all intensive purposes penniless at this point, due to a few unfortunate... ripoffs-- but for the most part, our experience has been amazing.
Today, we went to the Prado Museum, which was a pretty spectacular facility. The art was splendid, and we both found much to enjoy. The gift shop, sadly, lacked any of the artworks that we found as our favorites, but it was still great. Besides, since it was a Sunday, entrance was FREE!
(Dad Williams- Whitney is convinced that you would be in love with the works of El Greco, particularly his pieces with the human figure. She tried to find something at the gift shop, but eevrything was in Spanish, so she got mad at it and gave up. Sorry!)
Then we wandered around the town a bit, rented a small rowboat on a pond of sorts in a grand park, and then just tried to enjoy our last bits of time abroad. Whitney discovered another alcohol she likes, which is Sangria-- take note of that, everyone.
So, we have a flight to catch at 10 in the morning, and so have to get up early and head off to catch our plane. We have a long day of travel ahead of us, so send us your prayers-- ours go out to Nicole and Mom Meadows on their respective returns home-- and we will all be back together tomorrow night.
Much love, and many thanks for all your help and support during our trip,
Duncan and Whitney, world travellers and poor people :)
P.S. We will be doing one last blog post-return, chock-full of all the photos we couldn´t upload during the last few days!

Well, I must say, you two have taken full advantage of your every waking moment in Europe...it's a good thing you are both young and energetic!
Hmmm, Sangria, might have to make a run to the local package store :) Would you like chips & cheese dip with that Senorita?
I will definitely be praying for you two, Marella, and Nicole all to return safely home. Tomorrow night can't get here soon enough for me!
Sending much, much love your way...
oh my goodness. I've been up for 24 hours of trains and planes and I'm exhausted. I feel like I've been run over. I will definitely be praying for safe travels for you both tomorrow. Well, I'll probably be sleeping all day tomorrow, but know that you're in my prayers when I'm awake. I can't wait to see you! I definitely need a drink after the past two weeks! Love you and Miss you!!!
