Octopus, and Fish Heads

Quite the combonation eh? :). Those are the three words I would choose to sum up my last three days.
Yesterday was Day of All Saints (or somehting like that), the holiday which halloween originates (sort of). To ´Celebrate´(not actually a HAPPY holiday, but I´m not sure what word to use) we bought flowers and went up to the Rural house (hotel thing in the country the family has, which is GORGEOUS and is where Tita, and Loreto´s Mother grew up) to put flowers on Loretos mom´s grave. There actually is a whole chapel thing, that isn´t open to the guests, but I think it might be where her mom is, I didn´t quite understand, but I know she´s burried somewhere up there.
After that we (Loreto, Juan (padre), Carmen, Tita, y Abuelo Juan (grandpa)) went to a fish restaurant in the really north of the island (Juan padre´s Favorite, oh padre=dad :) ). One of the things we at was a purple octopus. When it was served it still looked just like an octopus you would see swimming in the Ocean (without the head thank goodness though...!). Loreto cut it up into pieces, while I looked on scepticly. When everyone else started digging in I figured it couldn´t be sooo bad so I went for it. Definitely not the food for me...Imagine chewing a salty piece of gum that doesn´t really chew very easily, mixed with a big chunk of beef fat....Yeah pleasent eh? Oh yeah, I forgot about the SUCKERS, they pop off of the ´meat´when you put it in your mouth and have a texture like nothig else i´ve ever eaten. And to be polite I ate more than just one little piece...Yeah I guess at least now I can say that I´ve eaten Octopus.
The fish heads thing was also a surprise. When they brought out the plates with the main course.
