Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning

The day started with Karen and Javi - They fed me lunch and kept me awake until 5pm, when Javier took over. With Karen, we mostly solve my problems, buying some fruit and a local sim card for my mobile phone. The sim card turned out to be a 2 hour adventure. Buying it was a piece of cake, getting it to work was not a piece of cake. The first sim card (20 euros) would receive calls from some networks but not other networks. After discussion with Movistar, lots of action, it still did not work reliably. So we exchanged it for a 12 euro phone with sim card. This worked fine. Transferred the sim card to my original phone and it worked fine. So problem was not mine.

Then, Javier picked me up and we walked to the harbor. Here is the headquarters for the America's cup

There was no sign of the Oracle boat - but here is the hull of Alinghi
