  • The Old Town

    The Old Town

    A day before our departure back to Norway, we went to see Alcudia’s old town. I love old and ancient architecture plus the history behind it. We went there around 12 noon so it was hot and there were already lots of people. However, it didn’t stop us from admiring the place. The city walls…

  • Mallorca in my Mind

    Mallorca in my Mind

    This year’s summer destination is Mallorca. We booked this trip just earlier this year. It’s not practical because it’s more expensive than booking a trip for at least 6 months in advance. However, I have no regrets despite the price because Mallorca is a very beautiful place and besides we needed a refill of sunshine…

    Costa Adeje 2016, Part 3- Last Part

    Day 3 I woke up to the sound of the pouring rain. First, I thought that I was just dreaming. Then I looked outside our balcony. Our towels and our swimming attires were soaked and the sky was grey. I thought that I’d never see the sun for the rest of the day and that…

  • La Sagrada Familia

    This is my take on the Daily Post photo challenge, ornate. This is inside the majestic La Sagrada Familia church which was designed by a Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi. I can say that Gaudi did a very good job. I went here in 2012. I remember waiting to get inside for an hour in the…

  • Barcelona Spain: Day 2

    Second day was rather a relaxing day. Headed to Barceloneta Beach around 11am and stayed there for at least 2 hours sunbathing and swimming. We could’ve stayed longer but I forgot to bring my sunblock. The beach was crowded but we didn’t mind. The only thing that annoyed us were the sellers who kept coming…

  • Barcelona Spain: Day 1

    Since we just relaxed and took the night when we arrived at the hotel, we were full of energy the following day. I admit that I was very excited to go out and explore the city. After eating breakfast at 9.30am we began walking to the metro station. Our hotel is circa 2-3 blocks away…
