Today we finally started getting some work done. A is in her studio/our bedroom sketching on a bright new canvas that we bought at Chopo Bellas Artes on Plaza del Angel and I have been trying to finish an article on multicultural Barcelona for HRJ.There are lentils cooking on the stove, and it's still hot. It's 86 degrees inside. The only thing you can do is take a cold shower and not dry off. This afternoon we will take a walk in the Retiro and maybe check out the Picasso exhibit at the Prado which ends on the 10th. We wanted to go on Sunday afternoon (it's free on Sundays) but the line went out the door and 100 yards down the Paseo del Prado.

If you continue down Paseo del Prado, past Plaza del Angel, there is an excellent little cafe that makes to-die-for lentejas. Rodrigo is the man in charge there, and if you tell him I sent you and give him a kiss on the cheek, he will surely take care of you.
Past that cafe on the right side of Paseo del Prado you will see a small shop where you can buy a porcelain statue of a monkey on a surfboard, and maybe a mogwai.
