As I promised...

... in a previous post, here some photos of my New Year's Trip :)

The plane was taking off from Valencia to Basel... I know what you are thinking, that I was going to Zurich, but is the price you pay for travelling with Ryanair. Anyway, there in Valencia we spent one night guess where?!! At Nicandro's place!!! hehehe... When we arrived to Valencia, there was waiting for us Nicandrito and a girl from Taiwan whose name I cannot WRITE and Angelaaa!!
Then the tour started... Angela make us walk a lot, but we visited many places! Here some photos.

But there is a photos which I want to specially dedicate to Juanitoooo... Just for you to demonstrate what spanish think about shit and shitting :)

So, about Zurich I've already told you a few things, here, that you have to take on accout if any time you decide to go, but I wanted to show you also how nice Switzerland is. First of all, the Alps! I think that they are amazing, I was wondering all the time to make a nice photo, but as you can imagine the weather is not so wonderful... At the end I could make a nice one but during our visit to Bern.

The image on the Left is from Gruyère, one group of mountains where one can ski near Bern. And the one on the Right if from the Gurten, one mountain at the city with 858 height where you can enjoy a great panoramic view!

So, what's typical from Switzerland?? Of course clocks, the Tirol, Heidi, the Fondue, the Alps, the Zytglogge, Einstein haus (at Bern), ok, ok... let's start putting some pics!
From Zurich city I would highlight that one can eat really well there, and of course, really important to try their Chocolate!!

For those who feel a little bit frikis, the pic on the right is me in front of the haus of Johann Kaspar Lavater who was close friend of Goethe and if you zoom the image on the top, there is written that on the year 1779 Lavater, Goethe and Karl August, Duke of Weimar meet at this haus.
What else... ? Ah! Fondue and if you eat it at a mountain in the Alps ... better!

And to finish some typical photos of the center of Bern where you can see the so famous Zytlog... Zytol... Zytglogge! God, I have always to check how is this "madre" written. Also there it's me at Einstein Haus and me doing stupid thing :P

Well, of course, I can be here putting photos and photos and never closing this post. But no! I would be strong and contain myself!

Kisseeeeeeeees!!!

Shit yourself little parrot...

Today, officially for the first time, a bird shit on me.

Yes, and I have to say that here in Bremen birds are not as tinny as the ones we have in Spain, here birds are half meter wide at least, so you can imagine how the shit was.. ok, ok... too much information.

But, thinking in positive, How should I take that a bird shit on me??

• Brings that good-luck?? Brings it bad-luck? :S
• Should I take that as a good sign for the new year that is beginning?
• Are the socialists going to win again the elections in Spain this year?
• Is our king Juan Carlos I literally kick Chavez ass?
• Is Britney Spears finally going to stay in jail for the rest of her life?

. . .

This and more questions will be answered and STRONGLY determined because today a bird shit on me (on my hair to be precised, and It was disgusting... :P)

Happy New Year 2008!!

Hi there!!

First of all:

2008!!

As most of you know, I've spent my New Year Eve in Zurich (Switzerland). In this post I want to remark some things that I've learnt from that trip:

1. Going to Madrid by car is easy. Things start to become vague, blurred funny once you reach "Atocha". =)
2. Not in the whole Europe is the Euro taken as currency.
3. Even if the Euro is not taken as currency in every country in Europe, at least in Switzerland, you can always pay in Euros. "Ja, Sicher!" - ¬¬ '
4. One is never prepared to stand the fucking so wonderful cold at the mountains.
5. New Years Eve is celebrated everywhere the same: FIREWORKS always required =)
6. Trips do NOT need special preparation, such as, knowing something about the country/city previously, printing a map some days before the trip, buying a guide of Zurich... Of course, you will always complain about the fact of being so careless and didn't get all that information before.
7. You will buy the right ticket to take the bus, then, of course, once you get on the bus, you will realize about the fact that this ticket needs to be printed with the current date to be valid and that the machine to do that is not in the bus, it is at the bus-stop. ¬¬'
8. Even if you felt stupid about the fact of the bus-ticket. You can always forget AGAIN to print the ticket with the current date :P
9. Some of the things that I learnt in the Deustchkurse at Goethe Institut about Switzerland were useful.
10. Only Indians work at Hauptbanhof.
    
11. Schweitzerdeutch is not so easy to understand, specially from Indians working at Hauptbanhof.
12. To make your german more understandable in Switzerland, you just need to pronounce it as you were Spanish (see Jacobian).
13. Live in Switzerland is REALLY expensive! But they have nice notes (cash), of course, just to confuse you a little bit more, the coin of 20 cents is bigger than the 50 cents! OMG!
    
14. And the most important one that I've learned for granted:

ALWAYS HAVE A 'B-PLAN'!! :)

Hehe... I've enjoyed that trip a lot!! Fer, I'm ready for the next one!! :P
Next post I promise a more detailed (here understand 'photos') view of the trip to Switzerland!

Lots of kisses!!
