From Espa With Love
to ,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/[/b][/url], my first punk rock crush, and also to my pal , the very first girl I knew who owned a genuine motorcycle jacket. They died a week apart. Both is going to be missed.
Now a word of recommendation. Never drive a four-door Mercedes through southern Spain if you don't want to take home pieces of medieval buildings along with other cars' bumpers as souvenirs,[url=http://monclerjackenonlinech.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Günstig[/b][/url]. Remember: There's a reason the friendly rental car person really wants to give you a free upgrade from a wee pooter to some car you could never usually manage to drive: It's too large to suit on narrow village streets.
"Oh, my," said my small Lithuanian mama when I exited an Andalusian garage dragging an emergency fire extinguisher and a hunk of the wall it was attached to behind me.
"Should I stop?" I asked. Years back, Mama outwitted the Waffen SS. Mama knows best.
Mama shrugged. "No, is really a government-owned garage. Drive fast."
I'm back from Spain. Had a fine some time and counted far fewer automatic weapons about the streets than Used to do on my small last trip seven years ago. Franco is really,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]Nike Soccer Shoes[/b][/url], really gone, replaced by McDonald's, Benetton, oceans of ATMs and other hallmarks of enlightened democracy. Americana continues its campaign being the cultural lingua franca, and I cannot tell wrong: I made use of its manifestations, except Benetton, whose distressing focus on pastels precludes serious shopping.
(Aside: The Chronicle reports that Wednesday a kid was shot to death outside a McDonald's within the Fillmore. Who needs Franco when they've got ,[url=http://billigmonclerjackenkaufen.olimx.com/][b]Billig Moncler Jacken[/b][/url]?)
I did not see slumming around Madrid or any eyeball-slicing surrealists ("Un Chien Andalou,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/[/b][/url]," anyone?),[url=http://peutereyoutletitaliaonline.olimx.com/][b]Peuterey Uomo[/b][/url], but I did see storks roosting in minarets and Picasso's "Guernica," that we missed on my first visit. Ate more animals than I care to mention, reasoning that factory farming is less prevalent within the countryside. president,[url=http://duveticaouterwear.blogspot.com/][b]duvetica outerwear[/b][/url]," offered a desk clerk in a town called Monda.
"I think not," I replied. Spaniards are relentless optimists.
Visited Don Quixote's windmills en route from Toledo to Seville. After i returned home and switched on the pc,[url=http://giuseppezanottisneakerssale.olimx.com/][b]discount giuseppe zanotti sneakers[/b][/url], I found a marathon e-mail from railing against music industry corruption. For any second -- just one -- I envisioned her galloping across the plains of La Mancha inside a haute-couture conquistador ensemble. I was Sancho Panza on my small burro, the windmills were massive and owned by Vivendi, and the trail of Courtney's gown kept slapping me in the face.
I've got a diseased imagination.
But enough about the anti-corporate crusade -- for now. When it comes to Spanish women. I've questions that I hope someone out there can answer: Why is it that female teens vacation seem infinitely more sophisticated and self-possessed than American girls? Do they need an additional infusion of Big Macs to retard their self-esteem? And why, when they age,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]Discount Soccer Shoes online sale[/b][/url], do they all wear the identical woolen skirt and sensible black shoes?
American kids became an obsession during my trip, because they groaned and yawned and rolled their eyes at Goya's masterpieces in the Prado, even while their European peers,[url=http://woolrichoutletdeutschland.halod.com/][b]Woolrich Deutschland Woolrich Arctic Jacket Woolrich Damen Woolrich Herren outlet deutschland[/b][/url], equally antsy, expressed interest in an artist who was obviously as filled with tumult and rebellion because they were. It's difficult to assume a youngster of any age not finding something -- horror, fascination, glee -- in a painting like "Saturn Devouring One Of His Children."
I'm no better, I guess. At times I moved beyond Ugly Americanism to become a full-blown American Psycho, pushed towards the limit by honking Spanish drivers (car horns really are a national obsession) cheap the mid-day siesta and endless fiestas for obscure Catholic saints turn off the country when I, the intrepid traveler, needed it most. By way of explaining this tension between the casual and frenetic approaches to life, a friend from Madrid once told me that the Spanish work to reside and Americans live to operate. She was right. But we also live to shop, so keep those damn stores open.
