Story of Spain Life

Well, as predicted, not a whole lot of activity around here today. We ended up staying up til about 3AM Skyping, first with Rachel and then with the suite. We sure do miss those dolls.

So, naturally, we slept in til about 1:30 in the afternoon and rolled down to a cafe down the street for breakfast. We could've eaten at home, of course, but the host fam was sitting down to lunch as we left, so we just kind of slunk out rather than admit we'd only just dragged ourselves out of bed. There's something a little embarrassing about spooning out instant coffee as everyone else is getting ready for siesta.

Having "breakfast"

So we settled in at a little cafe with Cosmopolis (and everything else on the Kindle) for "breakfast" at about 3PM. We had a sausage-stuffed croissant and a Greek salad (Zayn's watching his figure) and hung out til a couple came in with a screamy baby.

We wandered around for a bit, just having a nice walk, looking into a few shops, procrastinating, naturally. Eventually, we settled back in at Starbucks. I know, I know, but it's the only place close to the apartment with free Wi-Fi and outlets, and we just were not in the mood to tackle the metro and try to navigate all those cute little winding cobblestones searching for a study spot.

Anyway, we finished our reading and headed back home just in time for our 10PM dinner. Tomorrow, we write our essay. Thrillsville.
