St.Patrick's Day with the Spaniards

Joan got home from Portugal at 11:45 so we met Shabir and Ana at Vives where they were having dinner. We decided to not go to Meeting Point and go to Carmen's to have a couple drinks. This place was mostly locals but there was a lively group of Germans that came in to celebrate their Irish heritage as well.




The singing started when the leader of the boy band began his rendition of "For dee longest tyme"it was pure hilarity and soon Ana, Joan and I were singing in as well. This bar had a flat screen hooked up to their laptop and were playing music from YouTube. So for the rest of the night Ana and I were running to the bar requesting songs where we typed them in ourselves and searched for what we wanted. Some hits of the evening included;
"Don't Stop Believing" "Sexual Healing" "Lemon Tree" and the favorite that got the whole bar singing was "Satisfaction" Spanish people really know their American songs. It really was a great time everyone singing, we were dancing at our table, Joan was highly intoxicated and singing very loudly which everyone actually seemed to enjoy. We arrived home at 3 and I somehow remembered to take an ibuprofen and a glass of water to bed with me, something that has definetly given me the ability to write this por la manana.

Today I'm supposed to meet Ana although I have no idea when she is calling me and how much notice I will have before I have to meet her so I better get ready just in case.

Hope your St.Patrick's Day was amazing as well!

Best Regards,

C.M.
