The title means "have a good weekend" and an appropriate response is " igualmente" (same to you). I wanted to point something out about the language here. Not only are things pronounced a little differently such as ce and ci sounds like th and "v" sounds like b. So Valencia is pronounced "Ba len thia". Another difference is the use of the word Vosotros which means they/them is not used in Latin America. So Spanish speaking people from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Argentina etc.. will never use this word. When you say your age or someone elses age you dont say "Mike is 43" you say "Mike tiene cuarenta y thres anos" translated: Mike has 40 & 3 years.
One of the favorite sayings is vale (bah-lay) which means "ok". The first day the class the teacher (la profesora) kept saying this again and again I had no idea what she meant. Another saying is "que guay!" (how cool). Also in the street people might say "oye tio" or "oye tia" which means something like "whats up friend" There is a local dish here called Alli pebre they tell me its like their version of gumbo. I'm gonna look for it tomorrow. Sailing is postponed until next weekend so I may go to El Ciudad de arts y ciencia, The City of Arts and Science. Its not far from here but its a series of buildings with guess what? art & science stuff. There is also the oceanografic specifically dealing with the ocean like the place we have in Tampa
