Around 10am I walked a couple houses down to grandma's. I had a breakfast of toast with tomato and cafe con leche. By 11am we were in the pool. Lots of water polo and Marco Polo and then the bread man came. Grandma leaves the bread bag on the gate and he honks for us to come out when he arrives. All kinds of goodies he's got. Today grandma got us a chocolate creme filled croissant! (Notice the wet ground under Loreto..she was fresh out of the pool)
I had grandma give me step by step instructions on the paella again. Maybe I'll attempt I make it in Kansas...she makes it look so easy! Here is she and grandpa carrying in the paellera...she made extra today because we has quite the lunch for my arrival to Murcia!
After a day full of swimming and talking in Spanish I was pretty tired, but Inma and I made the 30 minute drive to Cartagena to visit hermanos Gaspar y Paco. We had coffee and ice cream and stayed till almost 10:00! The Spanish know how to party late...after all that, I met up with Brittany to watch her hubby Roberto play a padel tournament and we finished the night off with a farewell party for a friend if theirs.
Now it's 3:00am (like I said, the nights are getting later!) and I'm going to bed! Inma gave me the keys to the extra apartment so I've got a whole piso to myself! Hope I don't sleep too late!
