You know you are in Spain when....

you get stuck in an elevator the size of a shoe box, and the repairman brought to rescue you doesn't have the tools to get you out. If I were a truly claustrophobic sort, I would have been in an absolute puddle. The worst part was it was curtain in about 45 minutes, and still it took me a good 10 minutes to get anyone's attention with the alarm.

Once I did, it was a lot of sympathy, distress and rushing around, but no one seemed to have the tool to release me. Thankfully I was not caught exactly between floors, so I could see faces of concern and worry. My biggest fear was that I was going to have to piddle before I was rescued.

After about 30 minutes someone used a screwdriver to force the release, and I was sprung from my box. There was much patting, and fussing and hugging done, and then I was rushed to my room to change.

Sometimes lots of 'distractions' like that lead to good voice because I am too occupied to get stressed. I think it was the case here. Not the best work, but a good day's work.

Other than that, the Med was very nice yesterday Morning, and Barcelona's drought seems to have eased a bit from last fall. They seems to be suffering what parts of the US are.
