Ole! Ole! Ole!



It's been about two weeks since my wife and I came back from our Europe trip. We spent about 11 days in a packaged tour, travelling from Portugal and across Spain. The trip took us from Lisbon to Caceres, then to Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Granada, Alicante, Valencia and to finally to Barcelona.

It sounds daunting, I know. And to be honest, for someone who don't like travelling much, I was afraid it might turn out to be a nightmare. But, to be honest, those 11 days flew by really quickly. I remembered transiting in Istanbul for four hours on the first day. The next thing I know, we were back in Istanbul again, transiting for five hours on the last day.

I have forgotten just how tough packaged tours can be. The pace is not for the faint-hearted. Also, I have never crossed so many timezones in my life. We must have adjusted our watches five or six times during the entire trip.

I will probably try to write some of the more interesting stuff that happened along the way. But in the meantime, you'll just have to settle for the photos I've taken during the trip. Enjoy!
