Hi, Kevin! Yes, it is about 60 degrees F here, which is very different from there. I would love to see you both, and you are always welcome to visit. There is so much to see here, and I think there are several museums that would be great experiences for you to visit!

Glad to hear you are getting settled in over there. It sounds like your dream is coming true. We have been locked in a deep freeze here. So, I’m sure your weather is a bit better. Since Michael and I got married and we can fly Military Air we may come and visit you one of these days. Have Fun!

Hey, Kathy! Great to hear from you, and I sure do miss you! Yes, of course I have room for guests, and would love to have invitados to show around the city. I have already been with a friend to a local cinema that plays a number of movies in English, and I am definitely going to use that strategy more to find friends. Besos!

One of the ways I find new friends who speak English to go find the foreign movie theater. That’s where the American movies play – and the ExPats, etc. gather. Good luck with the adventure. Do you have room for guests?

Ahhh, the Spanish daily routine! I totally agree… the time between 2 and 5 is kind of a daytime twilight, and on Sunday, the traffic almost disappears as the city has lunch and takes a nap. Although I am more of a morning person, taking a break and a nap definitely allows me to extend my working hours!

The siesta is well and truly alive in Spain. 🙂 Do not attempt to do anything but eat and rest during the hours of 2pm to 5pm.

Yes, the choice of roads is extremely limited. Having your friendship, though, is something that is greater than miles.

A visit from a dear friend certainly helped things be better. Thanks Christopher. Wish I could come cheer you up, but can’t find an interstate headed to Spain. 🙂

Peace and joy in the new year. Thanks. friend.
