ELECTRICITY IN SPAIN
One of the very first things that we learned here....
is that you can only run 3 appliances in your house at once without tripping the breakers.
That 3 INCLUDES your fridge. !!!!!
It was probably the 2nd or 3rd day we were here..... we were washing a load of clothes, and I was baking a pizza in the oven for the girls...
I had just gotten out of the shower - and I went upstairs to blow dry my hair. The blow dryer worked for about 3.5 seconds. Then....nothing.
A few minutes later Brad informs me that the fridge has shut off.
He went and tinkered with the breaker in the basement until things came back on. However, I learned that I can NOT blow dry my hair, wash clothes, and use the oven at the same time.
BUMMER. :(
Now we know to mentally ask ourselves before doing anything....am I using any other electrical appliance right now???
