7th morning went to Prado museum in Madrid. That was all i had time for before
my flight to london. Prado is very good -- never read or heard too much about
it before, except that "no visit to madrid is complete without going there."
Lot of artwork by Goya -- only artist i heard about, many others i had never
heard about... Lot of nice sculptures too, roman copies of early greek
sculptures. many stone (maybe marble) busts of some of the roman emperors. A
lot of them were 12th-15th century copies of the original roman sculptures.

Now in London .... got here last night. My flight to Chicago is in 3 hours 25
minutes. Then back to San Francisco, reaching there 9:30pm PST tonight. :-(

it's snowing lightly right now... so decided against going to the Tower of
London (something i had missed on my last visit here). fortunately flights are
not delayed or cancelled.

Oh one more thing - i checked in my bag on my flight yesterday, and .....

I ACTUALLY GOT IT BACK IN THE BAGGAGE CLAIM AREA IN LONDON!!!!! WOOOOOOHOOOOOO

ok. sorry, but that's the first time ever on this trip that that's happened.

2:56 left on this machine... byebye, and i'll see most of ya after i get back.
i have 596 photogpraphs total ... 85 in greece, 466 in italy (mostly rome), and
the rest in spain (mostly sevilla).

andio, ciao, adios, and goodbye,
-me.
