La Cucaracha!!!!

On our way to the beach yesterday to watch the sunset (which was beautiful!), Maria, Sam and I stopped by a heladeria (ice cream shop) for a treat. We were doing a quick review of how to order an ice cream cone and Sam told me to ask for a cucurucho, which means ice cream cone. 

So when the friendly woman asked me what I would like, I replied confidently, "Una cucaracha con carmel, por favor."....I asked her for a cockroach with caramel. 

But she was nice about it and laughed when I realized my mistake....oh wow, this is going to be a long eight months.
