Viva España

We arrived in Cadiz yesterday and so did the World Cup and lots of yelling and people running through the streets with their faces painted in red stripes. Nice beginning to our month long sojourn here.

I brewed up a Yogi tea I had brought from home as I was making Tin’s dinner. Dinner was pasta and peas as Sunday most everything is closed. The tea tag said whatever you do, do it with all your heart.

After a dinner of pasta and peas, the game and the yelling were still going on; Tatjana was at the residencia meeting with the students, Tin and I went out for a walk carrying an blue balloon, (pasta peas and balloons were all I could find at the convenience store).

Two elderly women were striding across the plaza with a Pomeranian on a thin leash. Tin was throwing the balloon in the air and chasing it, and it landed near the Pomeranian who wanted to play as well and we all know where this story went – the Pom jumped on the balloon, popped it, and crying ensued.

Lots of crying.

The good news is Spain won.
