Yesterday was one of the first day's we saw any real evidence of Christmas here. The tree is up in the plaza (decorated with cows with wings) which is kind of weird but Gail thought it was cute. The supermarket was playing Christmas music- I recognized all the tunes but couldn't understand the words.
In the afternoon we met up with Robin and Serge at our favorite spot because there was a really good musician playing Neil Young music. The photo of me is with Paco the parrot at Cafe Roma. We had to leave early because we had tickets to see Shirley Valentine at the theater. We bought three tickets so we could take Marilu and she loved it. It was changed a bit- Shirley went to Mexico not Greece but it was very good and very funny.
Afterwards we went to a couple of bars/discos and had a great time. I love the picture of Gail (with a rose in her teeth) and Marilu on Olas Altas Street with the burro.
This morning was a late start because I had to hang around to buy tickets to the Bruce Springsteen concert in Vancouver in March. They went on sale this morning and I'm thrilled that we got four good seats. Janet and Gape are flying all the way from St. John's for four days just to see him!
Now we have just returned from the beach and our biggest problem here is trying to decide which of the numerous fabulous restaurants to dine in tonight. Life is tough!!
