NUESTRO DEPARTAMENTO
Nuestra casa al llegar fue un estudio que mi contraparte, la maestra Nancy King nos consiguió y amuebló con cosas de ella y otros maestros… hasta flores y una pequeña despensa estaban ya esperandonos…
nuestra primera incursion fue a un conocido supermercado que estaba a solo 20 minutos caminando… excuso decir que Cesar (mi esposo) y yo eramos los unicos locos caminando bajo ese sol y el tremedo calor de temperaturas que sobrepasaban los 90o Fahrenheit, pero nos sirvió para despejarnos despues de un viaje un poco ajetreado pues viajamos por separado y el llegó una hora antes que yo a Albuquerque…
ya me imagino a Carmen (cuñada de Nancy) y a Cesar tratando de conversar sin saber el idioma del otro. Carmen nos recogió en el aeropuerto y nos llevo al depto. Al dia siguiente el hermano de Nancy (David) y Carmen nos llevaron a contratar un servicio de telefono y a hacer las primeras compras, por cierto, en el supermercado no me aceptaron mi tarjeta de debito Mexicana porque no tenia mi nombre y pensaban que podria no ser mia… Tambien nos llevaron a comer nuestro primer platillo Nuevo mexicano a un lugar llamado Chilli’s.
Our home when we arrived there was a studio that my counterpart, Nancy king got and furnished for us with some of her things and the things of other teachers… even some food and flowers were already waiting for us . our first walk was to a well known supermarket that was only about 20 minutes walking..
of Course Cesar (my husband) and I were the only crazy people walking under that sun and with so much heat since the temperature was about 90o Fahrenheit, but that walk was good to get ride of some tiredness after such a trip: we were on different planes and therefore different flights and he arrived one hour before my flight.. I cant imagine Carmen (Nancy’s sister in law) and cesar trying to have a conversation without knowing each other’s language!. Carmen picked us up at the airport and took us to our apartment. The next day, nancy’s brother (David) and Carmen took us to get our cellphone service and do our first grocery shopping. By the way, at the supermarket they did not accept my Mexican debit card since it did not have my name on it and they did not know if that card was really mine!. David and Carmen also took us to try our first New Mexican Food at a place called Chilli’s
