Come to Spain!

Suzy:

Obviously if you can't afford it, don't come. We don't want to guilt anyone into visiting and spending more money than they have. For those of you who do have some extra cash on hand, I was searching for cheap flights and here's what I found from cheaptickets.com

These are ticket prices to fly from Chicago to Madrid, which is typically the cheapest round trip. If you need an inexpensive way to get to Chicago, I suggest using Megabus.com because you can go from KC or STL by bus to Chicago for about eight dollars if you book in advance online. Greg and I took them; the buses are clean and comfy. They even play a few movies for you.

Anyhoo, I just wanted to let people know that the price is right to visit Spain if you're interested. Normally round trip tickets to Europe in the past have been around $1500 per person. As you can see from the links, it's down to about $500 per person if you buy in advance. Of course you want to bring money for travel within Spain (we don't have a car) and souveniers, but the ticket price is the biggest purchase by far you have to make.

Thanks you butts for not sending me a link to your blog!!! I FINALLY got it from Ashlee... anyways, I wish I were in Spain right now... unfortunately I'm too broke to come visit. However, I do get the pleasure of studying abroad next summer at CEPE Guadalajara, MX for 5 weeks! Now, if only I could speak Spanish... and you guys aren't here to help me... : ( By the way, I will be emailing you Halloween pictures soon (and, yes, Nick ACTUALLY dressed up! You'll be so surprised!) Missing you guys!
