Wednesday 14 July

I got up and was just reading, practicing piano, etc. Then Olga and I went driving all around Polanco, writing down the apartments that are on sale. Since they just bought the house in Puebla they want to buy (not rent) a smaller apartment. They want it as a stopping point in Mexico City and for during the week when Pepe is working. Olga wants one a 3rd of the size of this apartment. I am kind of sad because this apartment is beautiful and if I were her I would not want to move at all but circumstances call for that so what can you do. So we were in the car going through every little street for 3 hours! I tried to be a good secretary but it was hard to write down the numbers legibly when the car is bumping up and down and waving from side to side on the side streets with humongous pot holes. In the end we got 52 apartments written down! That is a lot for such a small area. These are the apartments only for sale, not for rent. Incredible!

After that Olga and I went home with a bit of a crick in our necks for trying to see the numbers. We just sat, drinking agua de Jamaica and talking. It was very enjoyable. We ate, then I read. Jose Luis and his parents returned from the Zoo so they wanted me to play piano for them. We talked for a while, then Rosalia and Sergio left because it started to rain. Jose Luis, Olga and I had merienda. I drank some atole for merienda. I am really starting to love atole. It is so so yummy. I think I will take some packets home with me. Then I went to bed. I think it is better if I don’t sleep in because then I can sleep right away when I go to bed. I try and get up by 9. Love you all.

Oh and I already talked to los abuelos and I am going to go to Morelia the 20-27.
