Alright, it's time for a walk through Craig's little house. If you open up the front door, this is the first thing you will see. This is where we sit all the time. This is where we eat our meals, and this is where we warm our feet. :) It's incredible, because they don't have heating in the place they put a space heater under the table to keep your feet warm. Im getting really used to it. You'll notice all chairs are on one side of the table. That's because everyone has to be abble to see the tv while we eat, and after we eat, and before we eat, and all day long.
If while standing there you turn left, this is what you see. The beloved tv, which is always on, always. The table that we never use except when the rest of her family, who live in another flat, come over i.e.yesterday for lunch and the Sevilla soccer game. The kitchen is behind that door. I have only ever been in there once, when she first showed us the flat. She told us she doesnt want boys in the kitchen....insert comment here:) Her little bathroom is behind the kitchen, and her bedroom is a tiny sliding door that you can't see on your left right before the kitchen. Through the hallway on the right is where we will go next!! (cheeeesey)
This is our room. It's small. That's Jason watching the Office on my laptop :) That's his bed he's on, and the other's mine. Brilliant eh? And that's one of my sambas on the floor.
This is the view from my bed. Those are our closets, and our space heater, without which we would freeze. However we have to turn it off when we go to bed, and whenever we leave the room, because the senora is very paranoid that there's gonna be a huge fire. The rule is, if you can't see it, it can't be on. So really it's only on when we are reading or watching the office.
This is our bathroom. It's tiny. You'll notice the tile floor, well it goes throughout the house. Let me tell you, tile floor in an unheated house when its 20 degrees outside at night...is freezing. I bought slippers because it is so cold you don't ever want to talk on it barefoot. That is my orange towel which my senora gave me. I had used it twice before i looked at the design on it...which is a naked woman. Weird? Yes!
By the way, here is the New York Times article that I am mentioned in:) I'm on pages 3-6, with pictures on page 1. Check it out! it's all about JBU's first dance. Ciao! Actually I'm having trouble putting the link on this page. so i'll post it under comments if i can copy and paste there! peace
