I'm back

Wow... its been 3 weeks since I last updated this blog. My apologies. Flattered to know that I have some loyal readers on this site. You probably guessed that the reason for my prolonged absence is due to Jacylnn's arrival in Barcelona. 2 weeks have never felt shorter than this before. Everything just seemed to fly past. Before I know it, she's already back in Spore. Sigh... miss her badly at times.

A few days after she arrived, Clifton, Jacylnn and I went to Rome, Venice and Paris for one week. This 3 places are the most beautiful that I have seen so far. Venice was really beautiful and romantic. We were there for only one day so we were quite lucky to get different weather conditions. It was misty in the morning and sunny in the afternoon. Of course, its a different type of beauty. There isn't much to do in Venice but there wasn't a need to do anything either. Its just so beautiful that you can spend the whole day walking around and absorb its charm.

If we look a little tired in the pic, that's because we had to sleep on the corridor for our overnight train from Rome. And we refused to pay $400 sing for one night in a hotel, so... we ended up sleeping at the train station for the 2nd night. Quite an experience. I certainly came out the worst of the 3 of us. Jacylnn was feeling very cold that night and couldn't sleep. So I didn't as well although I have already been trained to sleep in any condition after my one month backpacking trip. When she was able to get some sleep, she chose to sleep on my shoulders. So.. i had to support her head.

Look at the pigeon on her shouder. St Mark's Square.

Clifton torturing the poor pigeon.
