We´re playing a game. It´s called, ¨Let´s keep track of how many times we do embarrassing things in front of the public that make us look like dumb Americans.¨
The score is 6-0. I am winning.
And how many times has Mona called attention to the dumb embarrassing things, sometimes hours later, reminding witnesses in case they forgot? Once, so far. She was just getting warmed up last night.
Barcelona hace frio! Not really that cold - the English here tell me it´s great to be here and enjoy the warm weather. Meanwhile, I am bundled up, acting like a spoiled southern girl. darn you, atlanta. you and your sweltering heat.
Time to go back to being a tourist - just thought you might want to know that I am doing a good job of sticking out - not in a good way.
Adios, amigos. Or as they say in Catalan... I have no idea how they say it in Catalan, I am ignorant, remember?

I want details on all six incidents. All things embarrassing must be shared when you get back. Also, anything referring to hot Spainiards must also be set forth in detail. Remember, Jenn, I am living vicariously through you and Mona, and I need good stories.
Here's hoping you find your Senor King. You know he was very fond of the Catalan dialect.
Speaking of Senor King, did you know that when we had to bring in a Spanish food, and I made Spanish hot chocolate, he made fun of it in front of the whole class? Because it was so thick and chocolately, like melted candy? Well, that is what it was supposed to be like! Further evidence that he was not from Spain, as if they North Carolina accent wasn't enough. Also, I love that hot chocolate. mmm...
