we r on our way to malaga!

sunday has been masya ALlah

after breakfast at the hostel, we had churros con chocolate before setting off...
kesimpulannya we took a bus out to tarragona - like the herb: tarragon
then we got stuck till about 4pm, took a taxi to the services which cost us 23euros!

found out it was illegal thank god sara gave us a ride in her pajero to reus.
reus was a super dead town and we were ready to get our sleeping bags out and sleep under the bridge for the night.
after about half an hour an old man and lady took us elsewhere in their bmw. they used to hitch hike and told us they´d drop us at a more suitable place where the traffic was definitely heading towards castellon and valencia.
again we were dropped off at a dodgy place where we were ready to get our sleepig bags out and sleep under the roof of a random factory.

after about half an hour a photo journalist took us to cambrills. his name was pere. soooo baik!
when he dropped us off at cambrills, he said that if we were stuck and didnt get a ride out to give him a call and we could sleep at his house. sweeeeetttt gilaaaaaaaaaaaa!
¨he´s the greatest guy in the universe!¨said Wani.
¨I see right through you Wani¨said Faeez
¨hahaha¨said Lutfi.

after about half an hour henry took us on our first truck ride to valencia!
henry said wani´s spanish was MUY BIENNNNNNNNN
wooohooooo! with the limited spanish I ada, we foudn out that he is from peru, 38 years old, lives in barcelona, his wife is from huelva and works in administation? and has an 11 year old daughter, and the band playing one of the songs was from andalucia.

along the way during one of the stops henry took, we met gregg, a hungarian travelling to malaga! wooohooooo greg rockssssssss.
we talked a lot in the car. about how horrible life was in hungary under the soviet rule.
faeez and wani sang many disney and malay songs while lutfi slept.
told greg a lot about islam and malaysia.

insya Allah we´ll be in algeceiras before 4pm and will reach tangier asap!
and now we r stopping somewhere...on the way almeria... greg is sleeping. adios amigos. hasta luego! from us three.

Allah sangat menunjukkan kuasaNya kepada kami hari ini - semalam. its 4.30am and faeez and I havent really slept at all. good night.

So impressed with your journey as far.. At the very least we know you are safe and eating well.. Learning the routes through France and Spain.. Met Lutfi's friends at the BruNotts easter games and everyone is praying for you three.. Know that people are so proud of you besides being absolutely jealous of your adventures of course..
