A Spider in the Kitchen!

One of the most charming things about Puccini House is that most of the buildings are “Bungalow-style” – everything is detached and separated by cute stone pathways and plants, which are illuminated by small torches at night. I love to walk outside at night, the fountain is trickling and looking up the sky is just magnificent, the stars seem brighter, clearer, and closer here.

Enjoying a bit of star-gazing on my way to the kitchen, I turned on the electric tea kettle (I must buy one of these for my apartment… so convenient!) and bent down to get some Roobios tea from my cupboard. I almost died when I saw a thick spider about the size of my palm on kitchen wall. AGHH! Forget the tea, I sprinted back to my room, slammed the door, and checked for crevices where the spider might be able to get inside. I hope that guy doesn’t have a family, and I really hope he doesn’t find his way in to our bathroom.
