Cordobans



Old road sweeper smoking a large fat cigar smilingly saying, "Hola."
Well dressed woman in her fifties, raising her sun glasses, stopping and saying, "Hola, que passer?" I said 'Hola' and we both moved on. Maybe she mistook me for someone else.
Finally, a young spanish couple asking me, in spanish, "What's down there?" and pointing down the street. I shrugged, "I'm sorry, I can't help, I'm english." Funny what we say when we have only a few words we know in another language.
