Professor Sharon

Well, at least two members of it!

Last night, after school, Rich and I walked around a bit and chose to go a bit further north in town to find a new place to eat tapas. We found a place in a lovely plaza, sat and ordered.

As we were chatting and people watching, I see David Ram and his wife strolling down the sidewalk! (For other friends and family, David is the Dean of Faculty at my college – in essence, the “boss” of my “boss.”)! Hysterical! Another small world story! In espanol: El mundo es un panuelo. (a few accents missing as my computer doesn’t have them!)

I knew he was going on a trip and intending to visit Granada but I had lost track of when — it was a welcome addition to our day! We had a drink and a stroll together. Our brains are so mixed up with new Spanish words, that it was really lovely to speak in English full sentences with someone else (and enjoy their company.)

It reminds me that I also wanted to post this picture of one of the many many fountains here in Granada. This is nearby where we bumped into David and where we strolled before heading back for sleep.

It’s hard to see but there are pomegranates in the center of this fountain which is their local symbol. It may be Granada means promegrante as well.
