Today i had my first Spanish car ride. It was raining this morning and Isabel offered to give me a ride because she was driving into the city. All of the cars are manual here and she was asking me about my car and saying how it must be so easy to drive. The most shocking thing is that they double park. So there was a car parked behind hers and we had to push it out of the way with our bodies! I was so shocked when she asked me to help. She dropped me off very close to the center which was lucky because I could have been lost again.
Yesterday I had a very proud moment when a Spanish woman asked me where a street was in my neighborhood. I knew the street and knew where it was! Today, three British girls asked me where in mcdonalds was in British sounding Spanish. They were very excited to find that I could speak English, but unfortunately I couldn't answer the question.

i am laughing at your shockedness. i can imagine your expression. your car is doing fine. It is just sitting there. We are waiting for the lawn to dry out enough to put it in the basement. I suppose we should drive it one time before we put it there.
