I a little disappointed that my travel agent never mentioned I was transitting in Tahiti. It would have absolutely fabulous if I managed to spend a night in French Polynesia. Is kinda interesting to see polynesian women with a strong french accent. SEXY!... oh well..next time. Looks like a place for old people...

On to more interesting things.... What I have learnt in my Spanish phrasebook. QUITE FUNNY!

It would have absolutely fabulous if I managed to spend a night in French Polynesia.

Spanish equivalent to English idioms

English " It doesn't rain it pours"  Spanish " Eramos pocos y pario la abulea" ( There were a few of us and then granny gave birth"

English " Are you horny?" Spanish " Estas cachondo"

English " He's a fish out of water" Spanish " Se ecuentra como un pulpo en un garaje" ( She's like an octopus in a garage)

" Lo siento, no puedo levantarla " (I'm sorry I can't get it up!)

" No te preocupes, lo hago yo " ( Don't worry, I'll do it myself )
