Cold and wet

What a way to start a Monday morning in Spain. In fact, it is not just on Monday morning it is like this, but EVERY morning. But it is only starting to really bother me know as the weather is getting colder.

Because having a shower in a outside bathroom is just not that fun. First of all you might be a little cold. The house is not that warm yet, you spilled water on the floor which you then proceeded to stand in so your feet are soaked, and a nice warm shower would be just the thing.

You then have to walk outside in the patio (how do I explain a patio? Almost like a little terrace at the back of your house, or in the middle of your house with no roof on. ) and into the bathroom which is attached to the house but only accessible from the patio.
So there you are. Cold feet, goose bumbs all over in a cold room, and you know the only way forward is to undress if you want that shower.

Goosebumps!It really in no problem in the summer, having to walk outside. But in the winter is is just a bitch. In order to stay warm I constantly turn up the water heat which then results in almost getting burned on one side of your body, and still being cold on the other.

But all this is soon over, as we are moving into our house after a big reform. For a while we have stayed somewhere else, but soon the luxury of having a shower INSIDE your house shall be mine again.

Edit: Look I found a picture of goosebumps to illustrate my post!

Cold and wet

I have just come across this site that I have not seen before. VideoJug. They seem to have little instruction videos on how to do or make loads of things. Brilliant! So we (ahem..El Hombre is) are currently doing a coleslaw and I thought you people should have the pleasure of learning how to make a Spanish tortilla!
