Who says backpacking in big groups is a big No- No



So I have been NOT updating..^_^

I am back from the whirlwind trip through Switzerland,Budapest ,Prague and Vienna. Had a lovely time though thoroughly tired.Anyhow, this trip has given me lots to ponder upon as well as lots of pictures to sift through, receipts to sort, gifts to organise, and tons and tons of memories. What a great fun and laughter!






I used to be sceptical when it comes to travelling in big groups (there was 12 of us)as most people around me would give us that sceptical look with their minds thinking "oh my,this is just going to be a disaster.So many people,So many differences, so many opinions ... etc etc etc.



But this trip has certainly been an eye opener for me.For me,it was truly great touring those places with people so familiar to me, especially in manner. Lame jokes galore, Malaysian accents and Manglish, with comments both flattering and unflattering in front of subject of mention in Malay and Mandarin, and lotsa posing for pictures( about 18 Gb inclusive of videos hehe) .Everybody is just so comfortable with each other.At least I think the rest thinks the same way too.. ^_^















Company's great, food's good, places scenic - who could ask for more? Thus I want to thank God for His blessing upon us throughout the whole journey!!




P/S : When I've filtered and compiled all of them,I assure you guys more musings and pictures (definitely!) hehe

Barcelona - Park Guell


Have you heard of Park Guell?
Dont worry.I never heard of the park until I watched
the final of ANTM cycle 7 between Caridee and Melrose
which took place in Park Guell.



Have you heard of Antonio Gaudi?
 
Me too.
Well,he's  the one who gives breath to the unique and
highly individualistic designs
namely Parc Guell, Sagrada Familia etc...













Well, as you can see, his architecture takes a natural form.You can never see squares,rectangles or 
triangles in his masterpiece.


Famous delicacy in spain...

In Spain especially in the town of Toledo, they are famous for Marzapan..(a type of sweet).Its very delicious and very unique and beautiful to look at.

They are very famous for their thick chocolate drink & churos

Spain - Lloret de Mar



I'm sorry for posting this travelogue of mine late.. I've been very busy lately..hehe..

Well..on the 19th January my friend and I took a flight to Spain for an 8-day trip in Spain.Indeed it was a memorable one.There was so much that I wanna blogged about but if I had posted all at one time I would sound like an old whinny Grandma…So I decided to post bit by bit…hehe..


Lloret de Mar- We stayed in Lloret de Mar,a beach town (one of the most popular Costa Brava beaches in Mediterranean) primarily known as a tourist resort. It is 75 km from Barcelona. To me, the beach is not that great but it's a great place to stay if you're a retiree.However there's lotsa tourist there(mostly senior citizens)
