MEMORY TEST

This will be a challenge for my poor memory! I arrived, as scheduled, at 8:15pm local time, and even though the airline made me check my bag, I made it through immigration and customs in record time. I think I was the first one to complete everything.

True to his promise, my landlord was waiting, in his Audi baseball cap, with a sign that had my name on it.

His name is Eric Rodriguez, and I would guess his age as early 30`s. He owns the apartment and is an actuary for an insurance company. He is also Treasurer of the homeowner´s association. We went from the airport to the apartment in his (needless to say) Audi, where he introduced me to the security guard and the apartment where he had left me a nice bottle of Carmenere from Chile.

I ask him to point me toward the grocery store, as the airlines hadn`t fed me all day. I left Jack`s house at 6:AM, so I was a little hungry. He then drove me to the grocery store, and went in with me and found the few things that I needed for that night and the next morning. For dinner, I had cheese and crackers and the wine. To be continued.

Nice welcome! Cheese and wine. Once you're rested up, write us more about your adventures! They'll compensate for our current lack of them!
