El Torero and I went to the movies last weekend to see a Spanish film called VOLVER. I really enjoyed it. The well-known director is none other than Pedro Almodovar, an amazing and innovative creator of films. He directed one of my favourites "Hable con Ella" (Talk to Her) which premiered in the U.S. a few years ago. If you like foreign flicks, or if you are a fan of Almodovar, I highly recommend this film. You might recognize the main cast from various other Spanish and Argentine films. Check out the review, the trailer, and fantastic voice of Estrella Morente, a flamenca singer who performs the song "Volver". Morente has an amazing voice. When I return to the states, I will be happy to lend a CD to anyone interested.
Oh...and I think my Spanish is starting to get better. I only had to nudge El Torero about five times during the movie to ask what was going on. I think that is pretty good!

Sounds like you two are into your old habits, just in a new location...Movie watching, going out to dinner, hanging out at the Veggie Joint...
I'll download that movie and give you my review...(I hope it has subtitles)
I'm so glad the two of you are getting into the swing of things! I love reading your blog and hearing of your adventures. We miss you and look forward to hearing so much more.
It was charming to meet you both today! Here are the websites with information on La Herradura, the Spanish teaching center in Montevideo:
