“Monks in the Morning”
'There will be monks here tomorrow morning,' is what I figured Jorge was telling me. In Spanish, 'monks' sounds like 'monkeys' in English. But I was pretty sure we were not having monkeys over for breakfast.
Jorge is my landlord here in Mexico, and he speaks only Spanish to me. He will speak some English when my husband, Peter, is around. But if it's just me, he'll stick to Spanish, and I am fine with that, but it doesn't mean I get 100% of what he says.
