A night before the wedding…

Being paparazzi of paparazzi

Neither Dita, nor Natty celebrated their good bye to freedom. So, we had to do it, at least one day before the wedding. It was just in the family and together though, but I cannot tell that it was that easy going, you know… :-)

Back in Madrid for one day

Sculpture in the yard of Museo de Reina Sofia

In the beginning of december, my cousin Dita had wedding. After years of planning and years of waiting for official documents and spanish bureaucracy. So, I spent one day in Madrid just walking in the streets… But some things surprised me. Spain must be fucked up now. I saw huge lines of people in front of lotteries. It seems to me that people instead of working are just thinking that luck will help them… Well, this is why they are where they are… I also saw unusual lines in front of official buildings waiting for something – these were probably imigrants waiting for some support of work permit. I know it well, in Spain, you just wait and wait…


Huge lines in front of lotteries. This was a small one, actually

I love these graffiti that all all around!

Bilbao

Saturday, September 11th, 2010


The next day we went to Bilbao. This city is famous mostly by Gugelheim museum which is nice, but I think that the architect went crazy and the museum looks like unfinished fantasy of somebody. Probably it’s not even well built. Watching the corrosion on the outside wall and the well known history of the architect doing works just for eye, not for any function, the building seems like s***… Anyway, lot of people tells you that Bilbao is not a nice city, but I disagree. I liked it a lot. Much more than for example Pamplona.

The bridge above the museum is quite cool



Ok, so enough of the museum. Let’s move to the city.

Nice and really elegant bridge.


Nice façade
