If you don't know Spanish...don't try to joke with a waiter.  It won't work.

Apparently in Spain the Don't Walk signs at crosswalks are merely suggestions.

Normally women have all the options for hairstyles.  What can a boy do? Long, buzzed, faux hawk?


Not in Spain.  Popular among the young men are loooooooong dreadlocks to their butts with the sides of their head shaved.  (This also appears in reverse...long dreads on the side and shaved in back.)  It is the strangest version of a mullet I  have ever seen.  My senora calls the dreadlocks "rastas."  Among the younger male crowd I have noticed wear their hair sticking straight up! About 4 inches with the tips bleached white.  Basically it's uber attractive.

Cats like to be in trees.  Apparently anytime in America we call on the Firemen to get those cats down, we are depriving them of their natural habitat.

The Asian Convenience.

It turns out that the cheapest food here is the Japanese and Chinese food!  And the best place to eat after all the tapas bars close? Clearly an Asian convenient store.  Thank goodness for the many cultures of Spain.  :)

The ambulances look different but sound the exact same here. Ah a taste from home :)

The oranges on the trees here are not for eating...they are very very sour. Although we know better, these trees are like the forbidden fruit...Narea warned us, but all we want to do is reach out and take a bite!
