Make America Great Again hat. - Sep 2019
Impatience with bureaucratic processes and expectations for customer service. - Jun 2019
Desire to eat at a restaurant before 8:30pm. Also, the expectation that Spanish cuisine is exceptional. The worst disappointment for me was the food. It's not bad, but most of it is bland. - Apr 2012
Big car, American appliances and king size bed. - Nov 2011
...romanticized notions of Spain. Say good-bye to good customer service, you hardly will see smiles or hear "please" and "thank you". Also leave behind your desire to have dinner early. Spain is not an entirely european country, so be realistic. Also leave you opinions behind. People are very loud, opinionated and not open to foreigners or minorities. - Oct 2011
Uptight attitude. - Aug 2010
Desire to go out for dinner between 5 and 8 pm, large SUV, expectations for any real customer service. - Feb 2009
