BTW you cannot sleep before 1am and wake up by 8, the streets are LOUD. Today I met up with Alex in the middle of the city and we just wandered- thanks Petra for the travel guide/pocket map. We stumbled into the Plaza de Oriente, which had really gorgeous gardens and fountains. Against all my attempts to avoid looking like a tourist, I whipped out the camera.
My host mom doesn't speak any English- which has been great, because it forces me to use Spanish. We did hit a little snafu when I didn't know the word for pickle and in trying to describe it, I realized I don't know cucumber either. In case anyone cared, it's pepinillo en vinagre.
Oh and its snowing.
