More photos!

This is from the other night when we went to the corner party. Though I look a little drunk, as you can see, the bottle has not been opened yet!
The great cook, Wil, at work, as usual. He is never still. He is always cooking, cleaning, or trying to get me water, or adjust the fan. If you look closely in this picture, Wil still has hair.
Wil adding some green olives to the dish. He moved the rice pot to the other burner and decided he wanted a haircut. People at work were teasing him and his mom commented on it yesterday. So, he wanted me to cut it. He had taken his good clippers for his brothers to use, but he had an old set to use. We plugged in the extension cord and I started shaving his head in the bathroom, so he could look in the mirror. I was about 3/4 of the way done, but not in any fashionable way, when the power went out. I wish I had a picture of his face when that happened. I decided I'd have to do it the old fashioned way...with my razor. So, I put some shaving cream on and began. It took quite awhile to get through the coarse curly hair, but we made it. But then, I had to go over the entire head because my razor was a 'cleaner, closer shave' than the clippers had been. I learned a lot about how to shave curly, coarse hair. Just when I would be going along, the curl would change, so I adjusted the razor a lot. But, there were no cuts, and it ended up looking good. Most importantly, he was happy with it!
He did sit down to eat, and I snapped this photo.
This is the bedroom. The bedroom is actually pretty large, and there is a nice closet to the right of my junk there on the floor.
Yes, this is el baƱo. It's pretty cute, huh?
This is the exterior of our cute little place! I measured it today, and it is about 360 square feet, so bigger than a lot of the condos in Portland, and twice that of most places in NYC, ha!!! We are on the second floor.
Here is a close up of our exterior.
Looking down the street. This is the way that we usually walk since we go to a main road there, Avenida 27 de Febrero...
This is looking up the street. The internet place is literally to the right of that red car. And, our apartment is to my right as I took this picture!
