This morning, after a nice walk in the park (check out the pic), we returned to find some neighbors in the next building having a huge fight. I must say - initially i wasn't sure because since I've been here, I've come across many people who are not fighting but are using very emphatic language and speaking loudly. So I thought it was business as usual. Then, I started hearing words like "mentirosa" and "escandolo" so i knew something was up. My hostess translated a little for me. But, thanks to all those hours of watching, "Quien tiene la Razon?" (kind of like Jerry Springer en Espanol) before leaving the states, I was already on board :). Thanks Comcast!
And alas, I have not escaped Valentine's Day. It seems to be just as big and commercial here as it is in the States. As soon as I leave this cafe, I'm going to buy candy for my host family :)
