Time

An interesting thought came to me today as Matt and I were sitting around watching TV.

"You know," I said, "In Spain, when you see people having coffee, they're never doing anything BUT having coffee. They're not on computers or doing work, or homework...just having coffee."

"That's a very good point," Matt replied.

I like that people take their time here. I like that when we were at dinner with Matt's supervising teacher the other night, it took us from 3 pm to after 6 pm to eat lunch. I like that they have a nap factored into their workday.

Just one of the many things I like about Spain.  I think I'll stay awhile.
