Museo de Sorolla



When you live somewhere that you feel the timeline would be long enough, then you shouldn't be hurry to visit some touristic places, then you need to think about it.
You better go and visit right away unless the time is rolling and there won't be any time left or you somehow just simply missed the interest to see.

I don't think I missed my interest to see Joaquin Sorolla's museum.
I knew his paintings after my 2nd Prado Museum visit and got a chance to see his collections.
From that moment on, I promised to myself to come to his house that had been set as his personal Museum which I found amazing.

7 days before my departure day back home, that was the day I finally went there all by myself.
And I fell deeper to his works.

Blackstreet - Don't Leave

Still humming many songs from Another Level album in 1996.
Don't Leave and I Wanna Be Your Man are sometimes became auto played in my head when there's no song to sing.
My heart is gay and suave.

.....i'll go crazy, i'll go insane...

Breakfast with Barrios Kartika









This Saturday morning was special.
Jose Barrios and his wife Sinta Kartika invited Anastasia, Wulan and I to have breakfast at their house in Rivas.
We had pancakes and couldn't stop laughing to see Rodrigo, their son clowning around the house.
Ah right, for sure.. Jaime, Jose's nephew was also there too.

Breakfast time to brunch and brunch to lunch and lunch to afternoon coffee.
The meal was great as the companionship was warm and witty.

Lovely early day in Spring.

Venite Adoremus Dominus...

Christmas Songs are also one of the best thing of the Season.
Songs that you barely can't even sing or you might feel funny to listen to it in other month.

Our Church Choir decided to do caroling in Parque del Retiro
Just like the other years, we started around 4 and we made 3 stops and singing 6-7 songs

My friend, Michael Brave made a record and put it on Youtube.

We're going to carol again next week.
So if you're in town and you'd like to feel the Christmas Spirit, please come..
We'll be there at 4 ( at the main Gate of Parque del Retiro -- Puerta del Alcala entrance. ) and gradually getting inside the Park.
You can also sing with us, we'll provide with the song book.

Happy 2nd Week of Advent
