I spent a few days catching up with my long time friend. Staying with his family.

Mike and I hadn’t seen each other in over 20 years.

Having lived and taught in many nations, Mike has settled down. An artist, they live not far from the Prado.

This kid – Mike’s newphew – has been thrashing me at various games over the weekend. 🙂

From Madrid I’ll travel southern Spain for a couple of weeks before flying out to Scotland October 18th.
