Yesterday we woke up late, I went to mass (finally, my first time this trip, I was too lazy to find the times in the other cities) where I understood little. Mass was mostly filled with older women, and the occasional husband looking bored. I forgot it was Christmas time until I thought to myself, why is the priest wearing purple? It is so hot outside.
I met the boys and we went in search of a park where his highness might roam free. We found several, the first one in the shade did not have much grass, and the 2nd had lots of grass, but we were all almost fainting in the heat and the humidity. The heat, by California standards is not so bad, but the humidity means there is never a breeze.
From there, we headed to one of the malls where we knew there was a McDonalds. Unfortunately, everyone else had the same idea and the place was just packed. Any respite from the heat was surpassed by the crowds in the mall. That did not, however, inhibit me from buying a nice leather purse on sale!
We walked back the 10 blocks on busy Avenida Santa Fe. We stopped in a bakery for some sandwiches and treats for later, but most of the stores on the street were shut for Sunday. After a siesta, no one really wanted to do anything. It was less hot in the later afternoon, but Steve ordered pizza and empanadas and we had a quiet day.
All in all, it was nice to relax!
