Last night, dinner at a table with cooked food, the first one. The hotel had a section that was an albergue, so maybe they are obligated to provide sustenance for the weary.

The only annoyance was a woman who did not stop talking, and to make her every point, gestured extravagantly by mimicking vomiting or gagging, these expressions not in any way a commentary on the meal, as she did consume the victuals with a most hearty appetite.

Anyway, inter alia, he was teaching himself German, and clothes-pinned to his bike were his vocabulary lists! I really got a kick put of that!
