Well so far from private e-mails and thread postings... we have seven people included for dinner on the 30th. Of course, we can all bring friends or cool people we meet in Madrid along the way that are totally in love with Madrid. E-mail me your ideas and we'll decide on a location within the next two weeks. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you! Until next time, roses.

I could go, tell me time and place to have the meeting and if I can I will be there..

Now we have 8 (how cool) I can't wait to meet all of you. Check back on Wed. or Thursday for some dinner ideas. Hey, Replay, since you are in Madrid, any suggestions?

roses--if all goes well, i will be there as well. what a great thing you've done here! keep us posted.

Hey Roses,

Count me in for now though I might be leaving Madrid on the Saturday which I work out to be the 30th, not the Sunday.
Let me know whether you mean the Sat or the Sun, and we can go from there.
xxx :p

Oops! That's the second mistake I made on the date... June 30th is a SATURDAY!!! A much better day to hang, than Sunday! Sorry for the confusion. I swear, this is my last mistake... yeah right So everyone, the dinner is on Saturday, June 30, 2000 ... I mean 2001 !

Keep me posted!! I'm supposed to go to "La Olla Caliente" on either the Friday or Saturday night, so if I go on Friday I'd like to meet up with you guys on Saturday. I too am headed to Salamanca on Sunday.

Hi Sandyvi:

We are all different ages and different professions. We actually, or at least I haven't met anyone from our group previously. I did go to a dinner group in Los Angeles and everyone was TOTALLY cool and helpful. I hope that you will be able to join us on June 30th for dinner.

In regards to looking for an apartment... you may want to try roommadrid.com or EASO, which is housing for students... Also, MadridMan has a great link on his web site to InMadrid, which is an English online newsletter which lists room accommodations and apartments to rent. You are looking at spending anywhere from 25,000 to 80,000 pts. per month for a shared flat/piso, and anywhere from 80,000-350,000 for a one-two bedroom apartment. I have some leads I can give you; however, they are quite expensive... 150,000 pts per month for a two bedroom fully furnished apartment. It also has a pool for those hot summer days and nights.

You might consider posting a new topic entitled "Looking for apartment in Madrid, Spain," or something. It will get you more leads... I think. Oh and post it under Hostels, Lodging, etc... People that go to this thread are usually looking for housing.
Good luck and hope to meet you in Spain this summer!!!

Sandyvi.
