July 27 - Back to Normal

This morning, I worked for a while with all of the windows open - a brass quintet was playing down on the street, and they were playing lots of American standards.  The first trumpet was really good.  We stopped by to watch for a while on the way to our morning grocery run.

By the time we went out this morning, all of the lights were down and only the skeletons of the tents remained.  After dinner we went out to really take a look.
Some people seemed not to notice the missing tents - as long as the waiters kept coming with food and drinks, the party continues I guess.
Tonight, hundreds of people lined the bridge and waterfront to watch the "blood red" moon (lunar eclipse).  
Albert took lots of photos with his new tripod.  He gets a lot out of his cell phone camera - I just point and click - so not as interesting.  

In addition to walking around and enjoying the moon this evening, we had pizza at the Domino's Pizza that is right over the bridge - a welcome comfort meal after an intense week of Spanish.  No homework or studying tonight - a little reading and early to bed - maybe even by midnight!  Tomorrow, back to the books.
