mAdRiD aNd MoRe...
Last weekend was FAB! Lalo and I went on our summer holiday (2 days Spain, it’s actually too sad to mention hihi)! But never mind…finally away, with the two of us!! Joder man, cannot remember the last time we sat together in a plane…and I travelled sooo much this year!! The start of our romantic getaway of 2 days Madrid started kinda strange… due to Lalo’s flimsy/unprofessional Mexican passport we couldn’t check in online or electronically, and as a result we couldn’t sit together! Boo!! I’m tempted to say ‘stupid Mexican government’ but that will eventually of course come back and bite me in the ass ;)
The rest was absolutely amazing!! The food, the sun, everything! You have to know that my dear friends San and Luisja had made me already addicted to Spanish cheese and chorizo, so during the 2.5 days Madrid I have spend 99% of my time drinking and eating tapas (the drinking part is totally due to myself…unfortunately no one else to blame…). There was also some walking (from cantina to cantina), shopping (hey, a girl has to do what a girl has to do), and sleeping (unfortunately necessary). Although I was slightly thrown back by the city itself: it’s nice, but not beautiful. Sevilla is MUCH better. And shopping…? Well …all the same shops as London! Where is the Spanish individuality??? Probably somewhere tucked away where I couldn’t see it… However, overall, a trip to remember!!!
Btw, I finally have sorted out my pictures since May this year. So here are the ones you were all still waiting for (were you, really??). Uhhmmm….
Brighton...eating fresh fish
with a cute view...mmmm
Thames Festival: Carlos with scary mask and chocolate hat in our living room on the bridge (whaaat?)
And hanging out on 'the beach' next to our living room...
And then there was Madrid...but pics will be uploaded later this week...i'm getting fed up with going through all my pics :S

Mojitos and the view
from our room in Florida!
Dr Lalo’s graduation! By the way... I won't go through this ceremony myself if you are wondering. It's a waste of money and time, which both could be spend better in the pub :D

Hey hey...
Jij bent er ook vrolijk op los aan het reizen! Cool... Waar in China ben je precies geweest? Neem aan dat het een rondreis was?
Ik zit nu sinds 1 juni hier in Dubai en heb gisteren mijn contract voor onbepaalde tijd gekregen. Hoe lang ik blijf is meer een vraag hoe lang ik het leuk vind.
En of Dubai leuker is dan London? Ik zou toch voor London gaan, lijkt me net iets bruisender en oprechter.
Groet
Paultje (speciaal voor jou!)
