What I Miss About America

Spain is great. But, after being away for a while (OK, it's only been 6 days but it seems like a while), I find that I'm missing a couple things:

• My electric toothbrush.  Trust me on this one.
• SportsCenter.  Even 5 minutes while eating my breakfast croissant would be fine.
• Clean air.  I've breathed in more second-hand smoke in the past 6 days then I did in my first 44 years.
• Hannah.  Next time, she's coming with us.
• Fruits and vegetables.  You can find them in a market but, when you're out to eat, they're in scarce supply.
• Restaurants with chairs.  Like fruits and vegetables, you can find them but it takes some work.
• Hot water tanks big enough for four hot showers in succession.  In Sevilla, we had to actually schedule our shower time.

Little things, perhaps.  But, I miss them.
