It rained today and was a bit chilly...awwww




I know, I'm not gonna get much sympathy from anyone. Yes, it rained and I had to wear a sweater, but I still have my sandals on so I cannot complain at all.

It was a "chill" kindof day. Faxed the stuff to VISA, caught up on emails, studied spanish at a small restaurant while eating "carne con salsa mexicano" (very spicy!), and walked on the beach at sunset. I found out that there's a lifeguard station on the beach not too far from my home. This is good cause I'm trying to swim everyday and, truth be told, the ocean intimidates me a bit. It seems to be always wavy, the breakers are often as tall as me, and there aren't many people in the water. So I swim with a flotation device (a dry bag filled with air tied around my waist with a rope) and I'm gonna get a whistle tomorrow in case I need to draw the lifeguard's attention. While in the water, if I'm in distress of course!

Mind you, Jose, the lifeguard I met today was very sweet and had a lovely smile. I might have to talk to him more, just to practice my spanish of course!!


PS The pictures are the front of my house. I live upstairs in the pink part. The blue part is the balcony. The other image is my street.
