this is waaaay overdue.

No. I didnt get robbed in Spain by mafias and forced into male prostitution thereby making national service an obselete in my future as I would have gladly hoped happened. too many things has been going on and i just didnt had the mood to update.

Spain was spectacular in every single way. The food, the culture and the people(and then some!). Spectacular actually would have been an understatement itself. Imagine disneyland, multiplied by a thousand. And that might just give u an idea.

sagrada familia church, Barcelona.

yours truely and the toledo cathedral.

Churches. they don't come the way they do as they are in Singapore. forget tinted glass and white washed walls. These towering blocks of utter magnificience that dot the many cities of Spain are so over the top in their victorian and gothic designs it is a total art piece itself. And im really not kidding.

Cathedral,Valencia.

and then girls. this ring just totally redefined the term jewellery. can u say 6 million euros?

And that is what i call a crown.

Tagus River, Toledo.

Food. The spainards love their pasta. Italians obviously made their impression with the plentitude of Pasta and Pizzas and what have you. And there I was thinking Paella was the national dish. Its really incredible. Cafes tucked away in dodgy street corners sell the most amazing Porcellini and Tagliateles. Never mind I was approached by a spaced out druggie, a hooker twice ( whom i realli suspect is a trans in a blonde wig) and the neighbourhood are filled with tatoo-ed bald spanish men who drink alot. I have to say though. The hookers are really pretty. In a PVC bustier and fishnets kind of way. Fagtabulous.

The Mom and me.

Thats a Pizza by the way. Who said pizza had to be round?

One thing I learnt about travelling in a really big country like Spain? You spend alot of your waking hours trapped in a tour bus. And when I say alot I'm talking easily 12 hours of butt aching, card playing claustrophobia . Thereby a tour package that claims " 10days Romance of Spain" is really a rip-off. 10 days my arse. 5 more likely.

Anyhow, you can only lose so much money in the bus playing dai di and listening to your ipod. The scenenary in Spain is breathe taking. Which might just be why we have ppl like picasso and da vinci famous in the art world. You don't hear no asian names because frankly, you just can't beat a country that presents u the opportunity of an oil painting with every head turn. And here are the reasons why.

look! NEW SHOES.

And thats a little arty farty shot against all these nice trees nice flowers pics.
