    Yes, that´s right Tania and other, this summer is very very hot.
    Here in Madrid, and the rest of spain, tempertures goes up till more
    than 42 C degrees at the shadow, so imagine under the sun.

    Despite it Madrid if full of tourists.

    I have been all the morning walking, watching, buying something
    and this city is incredible.
    How many people walking by the streets under the burning sun
    in fact wearing nearly nothing to cover their bodies and sometime
    my eyes goes where it not allowed to go, but there so many beautiful
    girls and women that is impossible not to see.

    Yes I know what are you thinking about me, but it is not true, I am
    a married man and fidelity is my rule, it has been always so why not
    now? than I am alone at home.
    But Cuca is inside my mind every moment so it´s nearly the same
    to be a good man.

    With so muy hot some humor is necessary Tania.

    Regards.
