I wish I could save the best for the last. But my favorite photo album is still the journal of the previous day. Followed by the “Jelly Fish” post that some of my friends refer to. The writing of this set of journal have been one helluva journey. A total of more then 22,000 words [...]

So Many Boats, In The Beautiful Island of Mallorca (Majorca)
September 13th, 2009 3 Comments
If you are one of the handful of readers who follow this Sunday series, you probably wonder, where am I in the photos? I am often not that keen to go in front of the camera. Happy to stay behind the viewfinder instead. And all of a sudden, in day 11, I put my tripod [...]

Traveling To The Beach Resort Island, A Prelude to Mallorca
September 5th, 2009 2 Comments
The color of this photo is taken straight from my camera, a faithful reproduction of the beautiful sea view that we saw. I have been contemplating if I shall combine the day 10 and 11 entries into one as I didn’t manage to take many photos that day, for circumstances that you will read later. [...]

Madrid, It’s Madrid!

Recently, I met up with one reader of my website, for a movie by an actress we both adore. And he brought along with him a photo album of his recent overseas trip, shot using the camera that I recommended. He had some questions in mind but I am far from being a pro. Nevertheless, [...]

A Museum Crawling Day In The City Of Madrid
August 23rd, 2009 4 Comments
Throughout this series thus far, you have seen pictures of the Churches and the monuments, of the road trips, and even those of the bizarre creatures and the futuristic buildings from Valencia. On the 8th days, we dedicated the entire Sunday touring museums in Madrid. Cynthia and I love to spend time inside a museum. I [...]

On The 7th Day, We Toured The Toledo
August 16th, 2009 4 Comments
I would never forget the exhilarating experience of driving in the narrow sloppy streets of Toledo with a left-hand manual car. Some of which I could not quite figure out the one-way road direction. Another time, we drove into a dead end only to reverse all the way out to the road junction as the [...]

Taking The Driver Seat For Our Valencia City Tour
August 2nd, 2009 13 Comments
I wonder if by now you may think that I am converting my personal website into some kind travel blog site. Well, I am not. Just a phase I am in. I am still a raro (weirdo in English) and those out-of-the-world posts will return, I promise. In fact, this weekend, I have been very [...]

A Road Trip To Valencia
July 26th, 2009 15 Comments
“You always like to do it the hard way” – I get that a lot from the people around me. I have no idea how the hard way always find its way to me. But I think, rewards are earned, not being handed over. For the record, I don’t seek out the hard way. I [...]

Into the Mountain Montserrat
July 19th, 2009 9 Comments
If you open the Sunday edition of our local paper The Strait Times, you shall see a write up on Spain with a picture on a location exactly the same as my entry last week. What a coincidence. Ever since I have started writing this Sunday series on our trip to Spain, there are two questions [...]
