We are relieved to tell ya'll that we settled on a place to live. If you read previous posts, I mentioned it as our Plan B. Well, Plan A looked like it wasn't going to happen until Oct 28 at the earliest which basically put it out of the running. Disappointing yes, but that's life. As the Rolling Stones so aptly said, "You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes you just might find, you get what you need". So be it. I think we found what we needed. While the decor is not to our taste, we will do the best we can to get it into decent shape and take pictures for yall. The move is expected to happen on Thursday.
It is just a few blocks away from the Plaza de los Toros (where they do Bull Runs), in the area of Madrid called Salamanca for those who are familiar with this city.
Now, the next big issue is finding a school for the kids that is within walking distance. At this point, there's nothing we can do because the Educational Commission will give us the choices and we will have to pick one of those.
It is late so I'll sign off but more to come in the following days. Thanks for your prayers!
