People really take their Sundays seriously around here. And when I mean seriously, I mean they stay true to “The Lord’s Day.” After about two o’clock everything closes so being the American that I am I decided to get an early start.
I woke up early while Choni was at work so I could finally wash some of my clothes. I was kind of sneaky about it too because I didn’t want her to be upset that I used her sink. I hung them all up on the line and a half hour before she got home I moved them to my room so they could finish drying. It feels so good to have clean clothes!!
Sydney and I then went for a run down to the Sunday market. Of course we didn’t bring any money, so we didn’t stay long due to the painful temptations of cheap souvenirs. I then headed to the gym and picked up some snacks from the grocery store before heading home for lunch.
The rest of the day I spent in the Plaza talking to my family, which is always a treat. After dinner I walked through the park by my house and bought the Spanish Instyle and read it on a bench while I people watched. I wish I had had my camera because the most adorable group of old ladies was sitting on the bench in front of me. They all had on babushkas and were gossiping and laughing their heads off.
The movie I had rented, Just Go With It, finally had downloaded on my computer so I got to wind down with that – a little taste of home.
Miss you all!
Katherina
