Sunday morning

i slept in. sorta. it was nice to not have to get up to be somewhere at a specific time, like breakfast at 7 or school at 8.

i walked down 6th avenida and found the little cafe Marlene and i passed yesterday that has food and free wireless. it's like a little french place. i had a croissant with butter, marmalade, and fruit. the music has been anywhere from Christmas to Enya to Chicago to Spanish.

in a little bit i'm going to walk to McDonald's and study in the garden area over french fries and a soda. :-)

and then at 4 i'm going to see about watching the Lake House at the theater. i'm very excited. :-)

one thing i've not mentioned yet about life here is how people answer the telephone. they answer in English, "Hello?" and then begin talking in Spanish. weird.

door handles are not knobs. they are little sideways locks that you pull out or push down or up. on the outside of the doors there is only the keyhole to use to open the door with. weird again.

Jenny - you are awesome!! It's one adventure after the other for you! And I'm glad you found the McD's!! Keep exploring and enjoying the city. I think you've already seen more than I did!

Blessings,
