This blog is to share with you some of my enjoyable times of my life. I talk about things I love to do and adventures I have gone through. I take the liberty to recommend places, activities and food that in my opinion are worth to try.
This is just a tool to help you to make your own decisions when you are ready to go to those places (obviously from my own point of view).

After visiting the church, taken by one of its sides, we went to the train station. A tram car is in front of the entrance.
At the same station is an exhibition dedicated to Miró. On 23 August 2008, the council appointed Joan Miro as adopted son of Sóller. Joan Miró was born in Barcelona, but his mother and grandfather were from Soller, so during his childhood he went often with her mother to Soller.
Here a view of our visit:
There also was an exhibit of ceramics by Picasso, just there we can´t take video. I also recommend it!
I´m interrupting a bit the story about our weekend in Mallorca in order to give you an exclusive ;P
Today I had a meeting with a friend at the Café o Círculo de Bellas Artes, around midday. At the entrance it was a sign that read “just today, open doors at the roof”, they had 2 passes, one at 14.00 and the other one at 16.30. I asked a bit more what It was about, and the people of the reception desk told me it was for the views, agreed the views were really fantastic.
Actually I had plans for this afternoon but the “just today” made me thought that I could miss a once in a life chance, specially due the part of “fantastic views” as far as if there´s something I really love are the views, so, I´d move my appointments in order to be there at 16.30 again.
Since more or less a year ago, I usually have with me a small digital camera. It´s Olympus, small one, easy to carry on, takes good quality pics (not the best over the world but good enough for my uses). It has the option of taking video, I insist, for simple things it´s quite good, I even had placed videos taken with this one at the blog before… but… I should say today I found it´s not for landscapes, especially if you want to use the zoom.
Anyway I wanted to share with you my experience. The video is ok, just that views at that roof deserves going with a better camera. I have 2 versions:
With ambient sound:
With music at the background:
The good news is that actually the open doors will stay at least till the end of the summer. Somebody explained me there that they place the “just today” at the sign because time to time they have activities at that roof that won´t allow to let the people to go there, so, in order to avoid claims, they preferred the “just for today” thing.,
So, the passes for this open doors of the roo fis from Monday to Sunday at 14.00 and at 16.30. Saturday and Sunday also at 11.00 and 20.00. The cost of each pass is 2 euros.
I´m really glad to know the roof doors will be open more days, so I can go again with a better camera and even in different times, I think to watch the sunset there should be priceless!
What could have a housewife living in Ponferrada (Kas), an accountant living in a village from Segovia (Meryem) and a business woman living in Guatemala (me)? A chat room! Of course! ; )
In 1997, when chats where starting, a friend of mine living in Buenos Aires told me about chats. At that step, public chats were something really nice, with people willing to know the thinking way from people in other countries, a relaxing way to have good time, an exciting window to watch the world.
This friend of mine invited me to a specific chat room: La Cantina, but usually I had to wait him for so long, that meant me to talk with a lot of people and in short time I was joining La Cantina to talk with my new pals instead the one in Bs. As.! :) There I met Kas and Meryem. We are quite different, but we have a great relation. Btw: none of us really likes to drink!
Due the distance we can´t meet each other so frequently, but when we do, we have a great time!
Meryem was willing to celebrate her 39th birthday with us. She invited us to her home to spend the weekend together. I should clarify something: if till now you got the impression that I´m extrovert, a bit crazy and daring… compared with them I´m shy, serious and demure!!
Kas came to my home on Thursday. She´s a brave woman that have had a complicated life due different reasons, but the way she tells no matter what, even the sadder parts, she makes you laugh! So, we had been laughing a lot Thursday and Friday. On Friday we both went to Meryem home.
Meryem does as hobby belly dance since 2 years ago and since she started with this, she became in some kind of Arabian culture fan, now her house is all decorate with that style.
Since one year ago she even started to give classes in Segovia. So, our first stop was there, Kas and me had join the belly dance class as well!
That night a girls´ party was programmed at Meryem home. Some of her friends wanted to do something different and funny, so, they organized a tupper sex meeting. I haven´t ever been in one and I have to admit it was so funny. We were 20 females from 35 to 60, most of us married and willing to have fun, so, the 2 girls in charge were showing us all kind of toys for 2 hours and a half and it was just to die laughing! It´s interesting to see that there are things that always will find a buyer, no matter the crisis!
The tupper sex party finished around 2.30 a.m. and we know some ladies went to rape their husbands at home that night!
We stayed at Meryem home that night, making jokes and laughing about the party, it derivates to share some videos from youtube, first ones related with the party subject, then with nice spots…
Eh! What I like of the spot is the lion! It´s my zodiacal sign! ;P
We were agree that Troya is the best film ever done by Brad Pitt (no, we were not talking about script, story or actuation quality);P
That derivates into some actors’ videos…
That derivates to some interviews… (I´m afraid in Spanish but you´ll laugh anyway watching it!)
You should watch this one!
That derivates into funny videos….
We went to sleep more or less at 4.00 a.m. Kas and I were sharing the room, reminding funny things… laughing till our stomachs hurt!
(To be continued).
As a fan that had live the Star Wars story since the beginning (I was 10 when the first movie appeared), was really exciting to watch in real life the scale models, paintings and wardrobe they used for the movies.
I had join Chewie´s ones...
It also has a small performance oriented to kids, a real pity! I would love to be one of the selected to attack Darth Vader!!!
Or maybe was a better idea to be part of the dark side of the force?
