I read in the car today on the way down to Chicago to a
Jaguar driving event (quite fun). I think I’m getting a bit better at reading
in Spanish, but I should probably start the Duolingo soon so I actually try to
write or speak some of it (I think that’s part of Duolingo . . . I don’t really
know). One of the fairy tale stories I read today was really sad. It was a
Mexican version of Sleeping Beauty, but the princess and her beloved were
exiled because she was native and he was a Spaniard and they were confined in a
cave and couldn’t escape and they died. Their bones were found years later
locked in an embrace . . . how sad is that? Hopefully the rest of the stories
are a little more light-hearted.
