What a neat action packed day!

What a neat day! So many little things happened.

The first neat thing is that I took a test to see what level of spanish I have so I can take a class next week. I'm very pleased to say that I'm a level 5. I think there are 10 levels in all. And really I don't care that much, but level 5 sounds pretty impressive to me, so I'm happy! After my course next week, I will actually receive 1 credit from the University of Guadalajara. Too cool!

After the test, I finally managed to buy 30 broken watches from the watch repairman who stands/works on the bridge near my school. Why you ask? I saw a picture of a picture frame that was decorated with watch faces and mechanisms. Andre really likes watches. So I thought he'd like this picture frame.

Then, I found a used clothing store! I bought a tank top and a slong sleeve top for $40 pesos, about $2.75 canadian. That even beats value village!

There was a funny. I went to Alfredo's office to see if he wanted to have lunch, I was near his office and gonna go to a taco stand he likes. When I asked for him at his office, I explained to his colleagues that I am his "companero de cama". I was proud to use my spanish until I realized I made a mistake. What I meant to say was that I am his room mate (companero de casa). What I actually said was that I was his "bed mate". We all had a good laugh!

Then I went to the beach to study, with a drink. I did study for a while. But then Tym started to chat with me. He owns a sunglass shop in Banff Alberta and is very interesting. So we chatted for the rest of the afternoon and early evening.

I came home.

Pictures: The "normal" beetle is Alfredo's car. The convertible in one of the variations that are here in PV. The interesting parking space belongs to a medical clinic that specializes in something radioactive. And the chicken lives down the street from me, almost across the street from the radioactive clinic!!
