Back at the Deli and listening to someone trying to convince someone that they faked the moon landing. Generally a lot of support for Bush's plan for space. We continue to meet very friendly people. On the airplane coming down the pilot suggested we introduce ourselves to our neighbour...never heard that before. On the buses (many which are free and the rest only 50 cents) the students seem to always thank the driver when they leave. A rather neat custom.
At our B & B we've got quite a selection of people. A very nice family with a little boy of five from Grenada, Spain. He's in Math and has a year's appointment at the university for the year. The common language for us was French so that was good to be able to communicate. Also, a very nice family from Milwawki (How do you spell that...!) dropping off their daughter who is finishing off her degree this term. Very interesting family as they spent time in Guatamala. Got some good local knowledge...esp. that students are returning for term beginning next week and 6th street bars and restaurants will be loaded with drunken students. Think we'll go to an old heritage hotel called the Driskill here for dinner instead of doing that scene...has a piano bar apparently too. A little more our style, I think.
