The Blog

On this day I was mostly a bum. After the bike ride the day before and staying up until the sun came out that morning, I was in no position to move around.

So I slept most of the day. And then Veronica and I went to see Michael Jackson’s This Is It. Going to a theatre in a foreign country was a new experience. For one, they make you choose specific seats for your showing and an usher directs you to those seats. And there is no extra butter or salt for your popcorn…at least not at the theatre we went to.

While at the box office window, I caught the “natives” laughing and staring because I was unable to seamlessly order my ticket for the movie. I know enough Spanish to get by, but they are a little impatient out here. I guess I kind of expected that.

The film had Catalonian Spanish subtitles. Overall, it was great. Michael still had it. That would have been a great concert.
