Ok, after 3 years here in Spain driving (illegal) with my American license I think its about time I get a Spanish drivers permit. I had signed up to a driving school as I told you in an earlier post and started studying on my own. But between work, the kids, and life I just didn’t have any time to study so now that I have free time in the morning I have decided to actually go to the classes they offer daily.

Monday through Friday 11 am to 12 pm I will be in driving class. Today was my first class and it was pretty funny. We are about 6 losers!! All about my age or older and each from a different country (including the teacher). Half of them didn’t even speak Spanish very good and every 5 minutes would ask the teacher questions like, what’s a “carretera”? To which the teacher would  respond “the road”!!! By the end of the class, I wasn’t sure if I had signed up to a driving school or a Spanish class. But the funniest thing of all, was to watch all of us get out from the class and get in to our cars!!!!!

The teacher assured me in about a month I would have my drivers permit, I will keep you posted.
