Mr Neat Hen grossed me out hahahaha! <br />My grandmother is from Cordoba too and although she's lived in Rosario and Bs As for most of her adult life (and she's 93), she still has a trace of the Cordobes accent, especially the r's. It cracked me up as a kid when she said things like “raso rosa”.<br />And it is true that Cordobeses are funny! That province has produced great comedians. And they’re very assertive too: when they want something, they go out and get it, think of El Cordobazo…Ana O'Reillyhttp://myscrapbookmisapuntes.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-52235679024420184002011-01-17T15:59:37.817+01:002011-01-17T15:59:37.817+01:00Pity that nobody is maintaining that beautiful cas...Pity that nobody is maintaining that beautiful castle!

Thanks for sharing the link to Valkenburg castle, I loved your post very much and wish I too could write about my travel experiences like you. Unfortunately, the ruins we visited has no website, cause as I said, many of the ruins are not maintained by anybody.

I recognize all the same questions, and I like that so much...:-)<br />About kisses and no shake hands, as you know, the same goes with us, Portuguese. You know how I was sad here with all the handschakes...specially in my birthday.<br />This year I stand up and I asked to be kissed, oh yes! And they kissed me in the class!<br />Your sense of humor is priceless and I liked it so much. The Portuguese people are always making jokes, we like to laugh about ourselves, and sometimes I miss that so much...that's why I think you are so refreshing ;-)<br />I cannot forget when my collegues said that before I had arrived, everything was so serieus...<br />I think I would like to go to Cordoba. I'm sure I will like it because I like to joke and laugh "ate as lagrimas" ;-))<br />I would like to know your father ;-) He must be very funny. Mine was like that too, and that's why we have so many hilarious stories to remember... I guess that is one of the most beautiful gifts of all: smiles, laughs and funny memories...:-)<br />Beijinhos and never lose your Cordobes way!

Mr. Neat Hen, sheesh, I wouldn't know where to look if someone I was talking to kept doing "that" but I would surely be thanking the heavens too that I don't have to shake his hand, LOL.<br />In my hometown, it's not just individuals who have their "nicknames" but whole families or clans. You've somehow inspired me to write about them someday (maybe).<br />Oh, and I love these little glimpses of Cordoba that you're giving us. Seems like a very pleasant place to grow up in. :)budayhttp://immateur.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
