Hello my tiny minions!
So, as I'm sure you've noticed, I have yet to post anything from my trip with my parents over Semana Santa. It's not for lack of trying, though, let me tell you.
Basically, this is what happened: Thursday was Cinco de Mayo, and though it's not celebrated here in Spain, a bunch of us Americans and a few Spanish friends got together at the house for some much needed Mexican food and drink. A little too much Tequila was drank, and my computer took the fall for it. Literally. But anyway, the computer is currently (hopefully) in repairs, and I will soon be able to share with you all the adventures of Pammy and Danny in Europe. Please, hold your breath in anticipation :)
This past weekend was pretty jam-packed, as apart from the Mexican fiesta we also went to a student of mine's house to learn how to make authentic Spanish paella. Now I can cook for you when I get back!
We have a long weekend coming up, 5 days to be exact, and we're planning on taking advantage of them by heading down south to Porto, Portugal, for a couple of days and then back up to Vigo (in southern Galicia) where we will take a ferry to Las Cies, some islands off the coast. We're all very excited about it -- a couple of years ago The Guardian, a main newspaper from London, called the beaches there "the most beautiful in the world". So, it should be a good time :)
Anyway, sorry about the long delay, I'll hopefully be getting my computer back any day now and should be able to post about all the shenanigans that the Mechtenbergs got into over here.
