Herlinda and Paco come back today. It has been a little strange being here while they have been away visiting family. Nikki did get an extra chance to try out some new recipes and cooking skills and did a pretty decent job. KD also got to do some cooking and may be in charge of always cooking the meat because he did so awesome with it. Today we took care of the usual stuff. Laundry, blog, etc. We did go for a cheeseburger date night at McDonald's! Nikki's nieces and nephews were concerned that she might not get McDonald's while she was here and wanted to take her before she left. They will be happy to know that McDonald's is safe and sound in Spain, along with Burger King and KFC.
The highlight of today.....
We got to see the place we will be house sitting! (Pictures to follow in about a week or so.) One of our friends is getting married and needs us to water plants and watch cats! We are going to have our own awesome place and it will be an adventure of its own!
Now we need to tell you a bit about it. First, it is up a lot of stairs. No worries, we will get our exercise while we are here! There are two cats; one playful and one that likes to be left alone. KD gets to change the litter box. There is a small flight of stairs up to the bedroom and then a sliding glass door out to the patio. The patio is huge! (Compared to everything else we've seen.) It has a ton of plants and a barbeque! (This might be KD's favorite part.) We also have a nice sized living room, another little porch with a clothes line, a kitchen with a clothes washer and dryer, and a little bathroom. We love the place and both felt very comfortable there. We can't wait to move in!
We explored the neighborhood a bit and it seemed to be pretty nice. We won't be walking around late at night or anything but it seemed safe for the daytime and evening. There are a bunch of great looking places to eat that seem decently priced and a great supermarket for groceries.
