Good morning!

Today I experimented with the blender and blended 2 tomatoes on the slowest speed. It came out just like the mixture in Spain. I went to Chata Polska, bought 2 long, cheese buns, brought them home, cut them in half, toasted them, dripped olive oil on them, put on the tomato mixture, a little salt and served them to Joan for breakfast. All we needed was the view of the sea in front of us so I put a video of the beach in Santiago with sound on our large screen TV. It was a good breakfast morning. :-)

I passed another practice test, this time with a score of 32, no mistakes.

Spent a nice couple of hours on this beautiful day sitting in Plac Wolno艣ci watching people go by, talking with Joan and enjoying the afternoon. There was one little girl about 3 years old trying to run all over the place while her 5 years old sister held her hand. It was amusing to see them running together.  Then there were the 3 middle-aged men on the bench, inebriated, passing around 1 bottle of beer. One of them tried to stand up but couldn't quite get up. Several times people passed around the Plac on those electric scooters that are for rent now all over the city.  In some places, there are even motor scooters available. We always sit in a spot that gives us a full view of the Plac and the ugly fountain at the opposite end of it. The fountain has a very modern design but we very much dislike it. It doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the architecture surrounding it. We have the same feeling for the small shopping center built a few years ago just up the street from the fountain.

Dzisiaj eksperymentowa艂em z blenderem i miksowa艂em 2 pomidory na najni偶szej pr臋dko艣ci. Wysz艂o tak jak miks w Hiszpanii. Poszed艂em do Chata Polska, kupi艂em 2 d艂ugie, serowe bu艂eczki, przynios艂em je do domu, pokroi艂em na p贸艂, opiek艂em je, skropi艂em oliw膮 z oliwek, w艂o偶y艂em mieszank臋 pomidorow膮, troch臋 soli i poda艂em Joan na 艣niadanie. Wszystko, czego potrzebowali艣my, to widok na morze przed nami, wi臋c umie艣ci艂em wideo z pla偶y w Santiago z d藕wi臋kiem na naszym du偶ym telewizorze. To by艂 dobry poranek na 艣niadanie. :-)

Zda艂em kolejny test pr贸bny, tym razem z wynikiem 32, bez b艂臋d贸w.

Sp臋dzi艂em mi艂o kilka godzin w tym pi臋knym dniu siedz膮c na Placu Wolno艣ci, obserwuj膮c ludzi, rozmawiaj膮c z Joan i ciesz膮c si臋 popo艂udniem. Jedna dziewczynka w wieku oko艂o 3 lat pr贸bowa艂a biega膰 po tym miejscu, podczas gdy jej 5-letnia siostra trzyma艂a j膮 za r臋k臋. Zabawnie by艂o widzie膰, jak biegn膮 razem. Potem na 艂awce siedzia艂o trzech m臋偶czyzn w 艣rednim wieku, upojeni alkoholem, podaj膮cych 1 butelk臋 piwa. Jeden z nich pr贸bowa艂 wsta膰, ale nie m贸g艂 wsta膰. Kilka razy ludzie przemieszczali si臋 po Placu na elektrycznych skuterach, kt贸re s膮 teraz do wynaj臋cia w ca艂ym mie艣cie. W niekt贸rych miejscach dost臋pne s膮 nawet skutery. Zawsze siedzimy w miejscu, kt贸re daje nam pe艂ny widok Placu i brzydkiej fontanny na przeciwleg艂ym ko艅cu. Fontanna ma bardzo nowoczesny design, ale bardzo jej nie lubimy. Wygl膮da na to, 偶e nie pasuje do reszty otaczaj膮cej go architektury. To samo dotyczy ma艂ego centrum handlowego zbudowanego kilka lat temu tu偶 przy fontannie.
