Lunch And The Orthodontist / Almuerzo Y La Ortodoncista

La versión español está después de la versión inglés.

MY BLOG IS returning to Spain momentarily so I can tell you about what I did Tuesday of this week. I had my monthly appointment with the orthodontist — where everything is progressing even better than she expected. I only have 59 (of 67) sets of Invisalign braces to go! Only 59 more weeks. Since the orthodontist's office is on the west side of Fuengirola, a 40-minute walk, I decided to go early and stop for lunch at the zoo (Bioparc Fuengirola) on my way there.

MI BLOG ESTÁ regresando a España momentáneamente para poder decirte lo que hice el martes de esta semana. Tuve mi cita mensual con la ortodoncista — donde todo está progresando aún mejor de lo que ella esperaba. Sólo tengo 59 (de 67) conjuntos de brackets de Invisalign para ir! Solamente 59 semanas más. Debido a que la oficina del ortodoncista está en el parte oeste de Fuengirola, a 40 minutos a pie, decidí ir temprano y parar para almorzar en el zoo (Bioparc Fuengirola) en mi camino allí.

"YO SÉ QUE QUIERO ENSALADA, PERO NO SÉ QUE TIPO."
"OH, I'LL JUST HAVE IT ALL!"
"OH, ¡LO TENDRÉ TODO!"
AND SOME MORE GREENS.
Y UN POCO MÁS ENSALADA VERDE.
AND SOMETHING WITH CRUNCH.
Y ALGO CRUJIENTE.

      A favorite expression of locals who learned English from GIs.

  5. With all these monkeys and wild things, thank goodness you clarified you were at the zoo. Otherwise I was going to say I didn't know you guys had a stop at the White House.

  6. First I've seen gorillas actually eat common food. Most of the zoo ones I've ever seen have been just lazy and lying around

      I had arrived at a perfect time to see the gorilla. Zoo keepers hide their food around the enclosure. I watched him forage and discover all those items.
