We went to the cinema to see Paris After Midnight - awful film, but reading the subtitles helps with the Spanish.
The Spanish seems to be going slow again - think it must be a beginning of the week thing.
I had lunch at the restaurant where we teach by myself yesterday - it is one of those places where everybody knows each other and I was just stared at for the entire meal. At least the food is good, but again it was pasta, rice and chips all in the one meal.
Teaching is going well, but very tiring on my own. It wouldn;t be so bad if it was wither all children or all adults, but mixed is just impossible! I finish the lessons an hour earlier now so as I can be back at the hostel before it is dark but they insist on walking me to the station, so once they have force fed me, and got me to pronounce every single thing we pass on the way I don't really finish any early. And having a massive group of people speaking very bad English waving me off doesn't really do much for not making me stand out!!!
The hostel is almost empty now and I have my room to myself. Though there is a very hyperactive belgium guy here. He is adament I am from Holland, and I think I may have to show him my passport soon to prove that I'm not. He has also force fed me some mushroom/garlic/cheese concoction that he has cooked, and is now insisting on making me a vegetable soup . . .
I think I have worked out how to do the pictures so I will put some up.
