Last summer, while the four of us Medway kids were in Miami, we decided that Summer Trip 2001 would be to run with the bulls at the San Fermin festival in Pamplona, Spain.
Who would have thought that almost exactly one year later, three of the four of us* would meet up at the airport in Madrid on a trip that would lead us all around Spain.
* sucks, but Mike.d couldn't join us due to summer classes @ Berkley
