Day 11

Days are starting to run together.  Probably time to mix it up a little so I spent some time researching my next moves.  During the rest of the day just Spanish learning, walking around the city (made it to the ruins at Santa Domingo), and a cafe to Skype with my book-club peeps back in the states.

Breakfast: Cereal & very sweet and delicious cantaloupe
Lunch: Bow-tie pasta with a little spicy kick, flank steak with onion, cold veggie mix (carrots, broccoli, green beans, potatoes).
Dinner: I finally encountered something I didn't like of Ordelia's cooking.  Yuck, plantains, I've never liked them though so it has nothing to do with Ordelia's cooking.  Also some black beans, they helped me get the plantains down since I still ate them even though I'm not fond.

Adolfo was the primary companion at both breakfast and lunch.  He talks to me as if I have any idea what he is saying and tells me that I need to speak more or I won't learn.  Hector likes to ask me what I'm learning and I'm never really able to recall.  My brain is full!
