My Monday

Well I had an interesting day.

Firstly I woke up early and then decided I didn't want to go to the gym so I stayed in bed for an extra hour - yes, hour!

But, eventually, up I got, shower I did and to work I went. You heard me, I went to work. Work, as in teaching, as in being nice to a student (in this case my private student who seems to want reassurance more than anything else). Still it was good to get out of the flat and earn a little money.

Afterwards I treated myself to lunch at a famous cafe - Cafe Tortoni - which has been in existence for 150 years and is in all the guidebooks.



It is a lovely place with all the art and references to famous people on the walls and only a little expensive (but I'm worth it).



Luckily there were equal measure of locals and tourists so it didn't feel icky.

Above this cafe (and one of the reasons I chose it) is the Tango Museum, open Monday to Friday 2:30-7:30pm. After my lunch (steak and tomato, if you're interested) I popped around the corner to the museum and guess what...


Yep, it was closed!
