DAY 2
Pepe and I loved the little hotel in town," El Volante". I loved the
tile floors and how clean it was. Just lovely!!!

It is fantastic to be together again. To sleep together again. To
laugh together again.
A thought about how I would feel once again when I return to Georgia
crossed my mind....I let it go. I will deal with that when I get there,
for now I will live the moment.
Therefore, there are no real plans to follow....So what did we do on
day 2? Well, we woke up around 10 A.M. with a phone call from Raul,
asking us to join them for breakfast at the cafe next door to where
we are staying. And, that´s exactly what we did! We had a simple
breakfast consisting of coffee and toasted Spanish bread.We stayed
talking for a while, and from there we went to pick up Gabriel, who has
started day care, and is in "adaptation" period, so he only staysfor a
couple of hours. It´s wonderful to be here to enjoy every day life with
my grandkids...
From daycare we went to Plenilunio Mall, in Barajas. That is where
Pepe works. He is on vacation, but he needed to do some changes on
the schedule, and wanted to do it in person...he is the manager for :
Yum....best ice cream in the world!!! I always wonder why they have
these ¨"ice cream / coffee shops" in Spain and not in the U. S., at
least that I know of....
Here is my hubby, preparing us some delicious expresso....
UMMMMM.... can you smell the aroma?????
My Pepe...taking care of business.
Meantime, I took photos...wow, this looks delicious!
Hmmmmm....today is early for this, but I will be back to have some!
It sure is a beautiful mall...those tables belong to "us".... I mean
Haagen -Dazs!¨
Look at that nice McDonald´s. Did you know that McDonald´s has
a larger variety of burgers in Spain than in the U.S.? Funny.
While we were there, Pepe´s district manager made a visit. Did
I tell you she is also my sister Maribel?
With her I had a Diet Coke, while we talked....tube glasses are a
classic here.
After the mall we returned to the hotel to take a nap. We forgot
about eating lunch...later we went to Mayra´s and decided we should
all go visit my niece Carol. It was great fun ...my three nieces were there,
and we had a blast! I love these girls and their families!!!
After hours of chatting, it was time to go back "home" and rest....
