Damn you treadmill!

Had my first real day off today if you could call it that. Its the first day that there has been no plan to do anything so just stayed in and decided to give the home gym setup a try. Not the best idea . I started off with some push ups and sit ups which were ok. Emboldened, I then decided to progress onto the weights and within 10 minutes I was grunting like a pig rolling in the brown stuff. Last but not least I thought I would try the treadmill(Im still trying to figure out what possessed me to do that exactly) but after 15 minutes of light running I decided that enough was enough. I had cleverly decided to run without any shoes and now I am paying for that with blisters the size of my fist on both soles of my feet.

Had a nice relaxing dinner though, the first real one I've spent downstairs with everybody coming and going and the conversation loud just how I remember it. Im going to be cooking tomorrow for the first time since I got here and I cant wait. Its only spaghetti but with my twist and with some nice fresh local veg straight from the market so hopefully it will go down well.

The fiesta is only 6 days away now, the same day as the Paquiao Hatton fight which is airing at 10 AM here I think. Apparently the streets are going to be deserted here during the fight, that is how popular Manny is here. The fiesta should be fun though straight after, my first real one in years. I cant wait :D
