Beautiful misunderstanding

The America Del Sur Hostel in El Calafate is the shiot. As I got out of bed and felt the nicely heated tiles under my feet, I felt strangely at home. Not necessarily at home, but the whole place exuded this amazingly homey feeling that was hard not to revel in. Ate a decent breakfast and soaked up the view of the surrounding Patagonian mountains towering over the massive El Lago Argentino. El Calafate is the quaint little town that supports the masses in their pursuit to get a glance at the Perito Moreno Glacier - a true masterpiece, as one of the only glaciers in the Argentina that is not receding and the world´s 3rd largest fresh water reserve. Anywho, today was the day to venture out to the glacier so we all had a little pep in our step.
Liam and I were lingering around the reception area coming up with any excuse necessary to hassle the Argentine beauty, Mariana, taking care of business on the other side of the desk. She caught wind of Liam´s name and immediately compared it to Liam Gallagher - who I now know is the head honcho in Oasis. In an effort to differentiate himself and voice an honest opinion, Liam responded, "Liam Gallagher is a cock." Fair enough, I´m not a huge fan myself - I mean the music is all right, I liked Wonderwall and all; but I thought they had disbanded until just recently, shows how much I know...but I digress. So, Marianna was a bit confused by this proclamation and inquired a bit more into the meaning of the statement wondering if he was referring to a cock as in a chicken. Well kinda, but an in depth definition was going to be too much effort. After a short ponder, Marianna concluded that if Liam Gallagher is a cock then - and I quote - "I love cocks." Which was simply priceless, and it was at this point that Liam and I lost it in an eruption of laughter. Such an honest misunderstanding of a common word that if used in the right context is wonderfully vulgar. After the giggling onslaught calmed a bit we explained that a 'cock' is also used as a synonym for the male genitalia. In my own pursuit to apprehend the Spanish language it is amazing to learn which phrases mean what and how something that would be preposterous in English is common slang in other places. It can be quite confusing, but really interesting and fun at the same time. None the less, the day was off to a brilliant start and the best was yet to come!
