Peeing of the Pants

Oh Saturday, how I needed you. First of all, on Friday we made our first hike that we didn't realize was going to end up being a hike on our journey to find Morgue a new fishing spot. We ended up at La Selva Negra and it was gorgeous.

We had a very peaceful walk and it was wonderful. Then we returned to our respective places, jk, we went and had a drink and chatted for a while before returning to our respective places. I did find that I look eefing amazing in black leather jackets, which has now made me want to buy one even more than I already did. Good thing I hate spending money or I would already have bought one before I decided how great I look in them. Friday night we also went out with the vermonter girls and I decided I am not a huge fan of them and don't really want to hang out with them ever again. Good thing they are invited to hang with us all the time right? It's really just because they like to act like they are cool, and like smoking weed and drinking to get drunk is cool. So I ended the night eating a Kebap with Steph who knows me so well that she always lets me eat my half first since I don't like germs and then I went home and watched Anastasia because ain't no one going to bed in a bad mood which those vermonters had left me in. 

The next day, I slept almost 11 hours, which I know was my depression biting me in the ass from last night's spike. I convinced myself I needed it though. I had lunch and then headed out for froyo and museo with the girls, Steph, Marge, Mary, and Vermonter Corina. Corina isn't bad, except when she starts trying to act cool or starts trying to play victim/start drama. So anyhoo we went and bought froyo and I was adventures and got frutas del bosque (forest fruit) jam like stuff put on my nata (creme yogurt) along with mango topping. It was quite delicious. Then we headed towards the Museo do Pobo Galego. It was all in Gallego so we didn't actually understand what the signs said, I mean we could've gotten the gist but I wasn't that committed. The museum was pretty cool and fun.

Museo do Pobo Galego: The Stairs

So the museum had these great spiral staircases. You had three staircases to choose from at the bottom and then two of them just ended but one went all the way to the top. They also branched off into the different rooms of the museum. If you didn't choose the correct staircase though you couldn't get to the top.

Museo do Pobo Galego: The View

From the top you could see this amazing view of Santiago. You can see the construction being done on the cathedral too in the middle there. The tower with the box around it. Technically its rehabilitation but I like saying construction better. It was wonderful though. Then the museum also was part church. I called it just by seeing a hole in the wall that looked like one of those things that hold holy water before we even got near the church part, so I'd say I'm amazing at guessing.

I just really like ceilings and windows in case you hadn't figured that out yet. The arches in the church looked like they were arcos de medio punto which are Roman Arches because they looked like half a circle. You can see that in the first picture in this section here. I learned about arches in class this last week in case you can't tell. Then the ceiling, though hard to tell in the photo, had a different image in every square. So one of them was a star and another was a seashell. I'd assume all the images were important pieces of Santiago's history since the star and seashell are important stuff.

Once we were done with the museum and seeing cool things from back in the day, we headed to the park of mazes (I have no clue what its called but it has hedge mazes) to see Morgue and his hammock.

Park of Mazes: Hammock spot view

So this is what we could see from our spot at the hammock. As you can see there are two walls of stone right at the front of the pictures. This is because between the two walls is a little stream. This is where I almost peed my pants came into play. I was just standing, chatting with my friends while a dad and his son, who was definitely a toddler, were kicking a soccer ball around. Well the dad had gone into the cafe at the top of the hill while his son chased the ball down the hill. He wasn't too concerned probably since we were watching that kid and had engaged the kid with the ball a few times. Well the kid decided it was a good idea to throw the ball over the first wall, into the little stream. He had been throwing the soccer ball over the fence at the top of the hill, so it wasn't super surprising and we just started dying of laughter. Morgue, being the kind soul that he is ran down and jumped the wall to get the ball out. That's about when the father came back to find this had happened, and went booking it down the hill. I'm not sure if he knew where his son was at first or not but he did veer off in the direction towards his son instead of where Morgue was so I'd assume he knew where he was before booking it down the hill. So Morgue threw the ball back to him and then they started making their way up the hill. Well the ball ended up being kicked back down the hill and the kid managed to throw it over the wall yet again, very sneakily this time since the dad was watching him closer now. So this time the dad jumped in and threw the ball back out, before he could jump back over the wall though the kid threw it back in. By this time, I was ready to pee my pants because I was laughing so hard at the little kid's antics. It was adorable and hilarious. Definitely devil child material. 

What a wonderful way to end our adventures of the day with a good hard laugh from a little kid who sure as heck knew what he was doing.
