Friday evening started bad. I was very tired when I got home, so I fell asleep until Mónica woke me up around 20:30 to tell me that the central heating system broke down and was making a strange noise. We called the technician, but he couldn't come until Saturday morning. So we spent the evening cuddled up on the couch.
The technician arrives at 9am on Saturday morning, enters our kitchen, pushes a button and says: it's ok now. Couldn't he say over the phone: try to push that button??? Moreover, he charged us 23 euros for this! Next time I will try pushing every button I find!

On Saturday afternoon we went shopping, had dinner at the mall, and even went bowling afterwards. although it seemed more like a game of: try to hit a pin if you can.
Sunday was a rainy day. We stayed at home and watched 'love actually' in the afternoon: a movie that shows us the love stories of 8 different couples around christmas. Ideal for a rainy Sunday.
On Sunday night, Halloween, we watched the director's cut of 'the exorcist' on tv.

Yesterday morning, we met with Mónica's parents to visit the cemetary. We all spent the afternoon at the mall together. We had lunch at Antonio Banderas's restaurant 'La posada de Antonio'. The service was terrible! We were already waiting an hour for our first course, when Mónica's father asked why it was taking so long. 5 minutes later they show up with our main course, and they cancelled our first course without any explanation. Sorry Antonio, but you won't see us again there soon.
