Well the most constant thing this week has been the rain. I have a pair of boots that have not dried in 5 days. I have been wearing flats because they can dry by the estufa. This week has been low key with the anticipation of going to Morocco tomorrow. I'm most excited about riding a camel. This is one of those things to check of my life list. There will be more to come about Morocco, but for now I want to fill you in on some random things I have noticed/learned this week in Spain.
*Gay marriage is legal here in Spain.
*Spanish families (at least my family) get into their pjs before dinner at 930.
*They don't drink milk regularly like we do. And if they do its the real good stuff with lots of fat.
*The federal state monetarily funds the Catholic church so they do not depend on donations as the church does in the US.
*The word pulpo means octopus, but put in context means creepy guys. It is used a lot of those touchy feely spaniards that tell women how guapa they are. The same goes for the word buitre which means vulture. Those describe the men who stare about the room looking at all the women. Its funny how some how people of all cutures are so different, but end up thinking the same.
Thats it for now....
