Hotel R Castellano Iii Salamanca

... to dinner that I missed the bread portion of the meal as well as the bottle of wine everyone shared. Bread apparently here in Spain costs money. It is not like in the United States where bread is given free as an appetizer and is refilled at the diner's request. No, Spain is nothing like this. My friends were given 2 bowls of bread of which they promptly ate both...each costing $12 euro (about $18 USD)...ouch. Luckily as I said, was late to dinner and did not ...

... matter. But Tengo Hambre is an unending presence in the main parts of Salamanca and is infamous for his one chant that he has perfect the intonation to, to the point that he can be heard STREETS away from where he actually is. I give him SO much credit for how much he can make his voice carry and how vigilant he is in his quest for a hamburger. There are obviously so many more things that I could write about, but for now, this will suffice.

... a) I talk about selling her or 2) I talk about leaving for a length of time. I'm convinced she's the modern day Christine. I felt my earbugs dangling out of my ear between fits of sleep. We must've had inflight entertainment but I couldn't recall watching. The weather was warm and sunny upon arrival, tiredness forgotten, I hopped on the BART and head down to Yelp HQ all the while texting Ligaya, Pina and Martin. So very nice to catch up with friends where ...

Bom, depois das visitas aos pueblos, foi a vez de Salamanca. De longe é a mais bonita que vi até agora. Existem duas catedrais, uma românica e outra gótica, a mais nova foi construída colada na antiga e vc pode subir na torre, a vista lá de cima ...

Dia 11. Decidimos pasar un dia tranquilito e ir a la zona del Embarcadero. Antes, pasamos por Castro y cae una pedazo de camiseta para Inigo: (por fin me deja escribir un post!) "Jesus loves me, but I think he should start seeing other people" (o para los de Cuenca: "Jesus me ama, pero creo que deberia empezar a ver a otra gente"). : ) En el muelle numero 39 del Embarcadero viven alrededor de 300 focas marinas de manera ...

... take back to the room. The cable cars are always busy but the wait was only about 15 minutes. We got back to the hotel about 1230, dropped off our stuff and met up with Beth and Andrew who is my sister in laws cousins. Andrew moved over here many years ago from the Western Isles. We walked through Chinatown and North Beach. It was great to see small micro societies going on in such a big city. In Chinatown its like ...

... is a common gift for Valentine's Day. My señora said that girls in the past had received flowers and packages from boyfriends or others. Actually several of the girls in my group already had boyfriends coming here, and sending things to them has been a topic of conversation for a few weeks now. I have seen some cakes and things with hearts and Valentine's colors, but ...

... and sure enough I was - departure was at seven-forty. I happened a glance at my phone, noticing that I had twelve missed calls from Justin, and muttered panicked curse words under my breath as I redialed. Justin picked up the first ring and told me he was ready and waiting. Being the spontaneous, no-itinerary traveler that I have developed into over the course of the year, I hurriedly stashed a number of miscellaneous items into a backpack and stormed out the door ...

... its a good idea always to have a reason to go back to a place and leave with good memories instead of never wanting to see a place again like with Montreal! So I'm gonna try and get a relatively early night as I'm gonna need to be out of the hostel by about 6am to walk to the greyhound station to make sure I get a seat on the 8am bus to LA which takes 9 long hours then I ...

Last night during dinner, Teresa was watching a bull fight on TV. I told myself before I got here that I wouldn´t go to a bull fight. Before we got to Salamanca, Dr. Torrico told us he would be taking us to one and that if we didn´t want to go, we didn´t have to but he strongly encouraged it. My feelings are pretty clear on the subject: it´s a cruel and humilating death. I couldn´t sit, or for that matter PAY, to support something like that. However, I wasn´t exactly expecting it ...
