Life is Healthy

After working 3 weeks solid it was time to relax and have someone/something amuse me for a change. So we went to the Warner Bros Amusement Park at 9 o'clock at night! (as you do)

What a strange experience but very cool - the park had lots of attractions but sadly because of Sandra's condition (6 months pregnant) she was unable to go on ANY rides - lucky for me; they looked terrifying (I must be getting old).

The park had lots of attractions and a wonderful water show to music, pyrotechnics and lasers; which was nice. I got to have dinner in the Daily Planet; now that's cool! Although Sandra was stressed there was NO Tweety's; how strange!?

finally at 1am it was time to call it a day/night/morning, whatever!
here are the pictures to check out - China if you ever come we have to go; or maybe Disneyland!?!

Parque Warner

I travelled up to Segovia to spend some time with a friend and see what Segovia had to offer. It is a very nice place indeed - the aqueduct is very impressive and bigger than I thought.

I wondered up and down the streets taking in the sights and getting a mild case of heatstroke so it seems as by the evening I was not a happy bunny - maybe lack of food and water didn't help?
So I had to eat and where better than with my 'YELLOW FRIENDS' I cant believe Spaniards call the Chinese yellow people!? In the UK I would be in big trouble (in little china).

Anyway, the following day I wondered around checking out the other parts I didn't get to see and it was far cooler which was nice.

I saw the castle that inspired Walt Disney and it is very nice too. As usual it had more than the required number of churches, each trying to be different to make themselves more important, then the long train ride home.

Cool Slideshows!

Last weekend I took a break from the dismal London weather and headed out for a few days in Sunny Spain.

Dade and I spent a lovely two days together wondering the streets of Madrid, trying to find the elusive market at Fuencarrel (btw Dade i now know where we went wrong, ask me next time we speak!), getting my tounge pierced, therefore not so much enjoying the lovely tapas as the lovely cool spanish beer, milkshakes and ice creams...

Dade unfortunately then had to go back to work on the Sunday morning, so I had two days to amuse myself, so on Sunday i jumped on a train to Toldeo, only 30min south of Madrid (I even bought my ticket completely in Spanish - so proud :-D ). Toldeo was gorgeous, lots of winding narrow streets and alley ways to get lost in. For those who ever get a chance to visit it do, but I would definetly recommend talking the bus up to the old town - don't try to walk it, at least not up from the train station. Also its probably best a town to visit with others as, other than wondering the old streets there wasn't a lot else to do except enjoy the tapas bars.
