Spanish Compadres and Jelly Legs
Sooo I may have accidentally set my alarm for 5am as oppose to 8.30am, which means we had three hours to kill until breakfast. The three hours flew by as we made our way eagerly down to the cafe.
It was as anticipated, continental to the last croissant. We made the most of the buffet, having both sandwhiches, cake and yoghurt in two servings. The breakfast area was very compact but cute, where we met a lovely English gentleman.
After food, we headed back to the room in preparation for our first meeting. To our surprise our friend's father turned up at the hotel as we were about to leave. He had kindly brought us a Spanish phone to use. He walked us to the shop so that we could credit the phone before escorting us to the cafe where we were meeting our Spanish friend.
We had coffee in this very posh cafe. The surroundings were beautiful and dated back to the 1800's. Following coffee, Gaiska agreed to come back to the hotel to be interviewed.
We headed back to the hotel where we interviewed him. Following the interview we wrote up the discussion and got ready to go to our second meeting.
This one was at a law school a little further away. We bypassed a beautiful park on the way, which had very colourful trees and interesting wildlife. He gave us a tour of the building which was highly interesting. It could only be described as hogwarts builton top of a subway. The students' union was very interesting. Just a small boxed room in this run down corridor. The corridor was interesting too, it was surrounded with political party posters. There were parties campaigning too, apparently they campaign all year long. After we had walked the corridor and was approaching the exit we passed what seemed to be a corridor of remembrance. This corridor acknowledged alumni that had represented the country politically as president... there were many.
We resided in a ferrari cafe opposite the columned grand institution. We talked over a coca cola until our friend had to leave for yoga. He kindly agreed to be interviewed on Wednesday and invited us to a guest lecture afterward.
We said adios to our Argentinian compadre and headed for home. Taking the alternate route, we passed some beautiful buildings. An hour later we arrived at our square. We decided to pause for a much enjoyed pizza before heading for a well earned sleep.
