La feria mundial en Zaragoza! Me parece muy interesante y me gustaría mucho ir... ¿Qué cuesta un boleto de avión de EEUU a España estos días?

Aquí está la Torre del agua, uno de los edificios de la Expo 2008. (From flickr)

You're great at inventing words, Poli: zaragoza > zarazoza

Let me add a further step: zarazoza > zazazoza. (This is what my tongue can pronounce after eating spicy).

Very vunny Alfonso. I'm happy I inspired you joke.
By the way. Did you know that zaragozas are green beans (judías to Spaniards) among some South Americans?

Incidentally, does anyone know how to edit thread titles? I tried unsuccessfully. I'm afraid I'm having a Gemma moment.

I think it only gives you two minutes or something like that to edit the title after creating the thread. I changed it for you.
