Spain Day 2

I was somewhat optimistic yesterday when I reported my lost luggage at the airport. They told me that it was left in London and should be on a later flight to Barcelona. That made me feel a little better since at least I knew where it was and that it would be here soon. But I should know better than to be optimistic about such things. The update today is that they think my bag was sent back to Chicago
and hopefully will be on its way to Spain today. I'm not holding my breath.

The apartment we've rented is really nice. I think it was a much better choice than a hotel. It feels more like we're visiting friends than being tourists. We found the small market in our neighborhood and stocked up on food. Everything comes in smaller sizes here. Makes you think about how we'd be affected if our food came in smaller portions. But as Chumpot said, CostCo would go out of business.

It's time to go out and explore Sitges. The downtown area has tons of little shops and cafes and even a Burger King. Lot's to look at. We made our way down to the beach so we could play in the ocean. That was a lot of fun. I haven't been in the Ocean in almost 10 years.

We learned today that we came home too early Saturday night. The party gets started really late here. So tonight we ate dinner and took disco naps and went out around midnight. We bumped into this guy named Tron from Norway while sipping sangria. He was in Spain for a CAD conference. We got passes to a late night club that was pretty cool, but the drinks were expensive. And I was surprised at how much American music was played. We managed to get home before the sun came up.

Apparently, Tupac is alive and living somewhere in Spain. Perhaps even in Sitges. More research is required.
