Portuguese Fiesta!

So I booked a cheap trip to Portugal for us... really cheap... like €30 round trip cheap.  In hindsight it was too cheap.  Yes, too cheap.   It basically became expendable.

To elaborate, a few weeks before the trip Joe and his friend, Gregorio, had the grand idea of cancelling postponing our trip to Portugal for a party.   I'm sure you can imagine my reaction when they brought this up... less than thrilled.  Their argument: it's the end of our time in Spain, we may never see some of these people again, how can you pick a trip over friends, yada yada yada... and of course the kicker... it was only €30.  And the double kicker, Gregorio was going to book a guitarrista to play at the party.  How could I say no to that???

So I gave in and we threw one last party at Calle Ferran 33.  And I must admit, in the end, I was happy we stayed in Barcelona for a fun night with our amigos!




I should probably also mention two more things...

1.  I gave Joe a condition before the fiesta.  He had exactly one year to make-up the trip to Portugal.  Look for a blog Dec 2011.

2.  Gregorio did not deliver on his promise of a guitarrista.  So Gregorio, if you're reading this, I am also giving you one year to make that up to us.  Perhaps this summer when you're in London???
