Spent our first day out on a free walking tour (that wasn't actually free) around the city.
Had our first attempt at trying to order food and coffee in Spanish, which was somewhat successful.

Another tourist said to me that it nuzzled it's way into my bag through the tiniest of holes in the zip. I felt like asking him why he didn't tell me what was happening if he saw it that closely!
