I was planning on writing all of these posts tonight about my trip–what I saw, what I read, what I ate (ham!), etc., but the jetlag calls me to bed earlier than normal.

Is that cool or what? And they aren’t just selling crap titles like The Da Vinci Code (which is all over there by the way, but not as big as The Historian and Shadows of the Wind). They’ve got Arturo Perez-Reverte (whom I like anyway), Jose Saramago, Mario Vargas Llosa all for €9. How about that?
And yes, I am a big enough dork to take pictures of a vending machine. Wait until you see the photos of the various Spanish covers I took at a bookstore.
