On Saturday I decided to take a walk up to "Coronado Brewing Company" and eat until I felt sick (*looks at the menu* I'll take everything please). I sat at the bar and randomly "shot the shit" with some of the people who just got off work, they decided to stick around and take a few strong drinks to the dome (then drive).I paid my bill with rare stamps from my collection (neil armstrong's moon landing stamp circa 1969, the manager was pleased but the waitress was confused), for change they gave me back my stamps and had me escorted out. I decided to walk to the ferry landing and take in the beauty.
While standing near the water I observed a family of Mexican tourists, they were obviously here for a marriage, and probably wondering who the weird white guy (me) was that was eavesdropping on their Spanish and getting in the backround of all the wedding photo's. Well I was eavesdropping on the Spanish because I'm learning Spanish and a small party happens in my head everytime I understand what they are saying, they also say if you don't use it you lose it (Pero estoy estudiando espanol!!!!)
I also saw a wild family of five riding toward me on segway scooters, at about ten feet in front of me they made a sharp turn left and parked on the beach sand. The mother took her sunglasses from the "over the eyes" position up to the "on top of her head" position and started to spout the gameplan to the family. She looked like a politician giving a speech from behind a podium, alas it was a segway scooter.
Sometimes it's nice to just go walking and enjoy random slices of life.
