Random Experiences

Since I've mostly been in class or studying somewhere the last couple of weeks, I haven't really thought of much to blog about.  That is, unless you're interested in Spanish grammar, vocab, and verb tenses.  Anyone??  No?  Hmm...  :)

And to be completely honest with you, I'm blogging right now because I seem to have developed an aversion to studying irregular verbs.  And that's kind of what I need to be studying right now.  Ok, one blog post - then I'll focus on irregular verbs - I promise!

Anyways, after intentionally deciding that I had zero desire to carry my umbrella around this afternoon, I found myself taking shelter from a  massive downpour.

When trapped by a downpour, the recommended course of action is
to take a picture.

As I cuddled next to the building and waited for the rain to lay off, I realized that I probably had enough randomly interesting experiences for a blog post.  Neat eh?

So on Saturday, Nikki was able to convince me to join her in walking down to the La Latina and Lavapiés neighborhoods.  After buying tortillas in Lavapiés for taco night, we discovered where all of the Indian food stands were set up for the Bollywood festival.  This resulted in a great deal of excitement, as you might imagine :).

A plaza full of Indian food stands.

Too bad I had already eaten lunch...

But, I had room for a couple snacks and some dessert :).

On Sunday, I was finishing some cleaning when Nikki came in and said that our plaza was full of motorcycles!  I found this to be quite exciting news, because I sometimes miss having a bike.

My former bike...

So Erin and I headed out to admire the bikes in the plaza.  Then I studied a bit before heading to tutoring.

Harleys parked in the plaza.

How great is this one with a horse and a buffalo painted on it?

There you go :).  And now I think I'll take on some of those irregular verbs, because I'm probably going to need them.  Later!
