Synchronicity
I forgot to write about the shrunken heads at El Museo de America, and how Aedan was grossed out by them. ("I nearly barfed," she said.) Lo and behold, shrunken heads are featured prominently in the new Harry Potter movie. Talk about coincidence! The movie versions look like the real McCoy.
Yesterday after classes, Aedan and I walked over to El Corte Ingles near our home (Arguelles metro) to exchange a doll that my Spanish family gave her on Sunday. They gave her a baby doll, and she's been dying for a "Witch" doll since we arrived. I thought they were only here in Spain, but there's a Disney trademark on the box, so maybe they're worldwide. She's got her doll, named Hay Lin, playing with a Madeline doll that she brought with her. Nice cross-cultural exchange.
We're off to El Palacio Real. Mas luego!
