The blog is not finished! But after the Theft (yes, capital letters), the want/need to update the blog took second fiddle to dealing with the Theft and just finishing the trip sans computer. Since being home, it's been hard to get that motivation to complete it. But I will. Ever so slowly. Please be patient!

Real Madrid

The following takes place on Days 136 – 145, April 12-21, 2011

Part Two of Corey’s Round the World Spectacular began in what turned out to be an amazing way. I arrived at the airport in Toronto with plenty of time, having spent the last of my Canadian money on one last Tim Horton’s coffee and donut and the fare for the metro/bus. It’s a good thing I did arrive so early too. Turns out that my first flight on this Round-the-World ticket with Continental Airlines was delayed to the point that I would miss my connection to Madrid. But thanks to the airline alliance, they quickly put me on an earlier flight with Air Canada.

In business class. Free booze for the win!
