Van Gogh exposition

Yesterday, we went to an exposition in Thyssen Museum (Madrid) in which is exposed the pictures of Van Gogh done in his last years.

Vincent van Gogh was born near Brabant, the son of a minister. In 1869, he got a position at the art dealers, Goupil and Co. in The Hague, through his uncle, and worked with them until he was dismissed from the London office in 1873. He worked as a schoolmaster in England (1876), before training for the ministry at Amsterdam University (1877). After he failed to get a post in the Church, he went to live as an independent missionary among the Borinage miners.

I like pictures of Van Gogh, but I consider his pictures aren't very difficult (other persons think of this form...), but well, they are very decorative.

My last trip to Venezia

A week ago I came back to Madrid from Venice, it was a very beautiful trip, I saw a lot of monuments, pieces of art, etc etc, Venice is an awesome city, with its canals, and its boats and gondolas. I was in Padova and in Ferrara too, this last one I liked more than Padova.
In Ferrara we was going cycling around the city and its wall, it was a great experience. Well, like a picture is worth a thousand words. Here it goes some of theirs.

  • Venice: the most important city in my trip, here you can see a gondola in one of the famous canals of Venice.

And the most importan monument of Venice is "St. Marco", with "St. Marco square" and the "Cathedral of St. Marco", you can see one picture of the cathedral.

Inside the city is forbidden to drive cars, but you can go in bycicle or even in motocycle (but it isn't normal), the most people goes walking (on by gondola or boat). Sometimes to go to other streets is neccesary to cross the canals, and the only possibility is using the bridges which connect different parts of Venice crossed by a canal. The most important bridge in Venice is the bridge of Rialto, you can see this bridge in this picture.

And finally I put other pictures about Venice which I took that day, the first is another famous bridge in Venice, the Bridge of the sighs, in this bridge the people who is in love, if they kiss them their love remain forever,

but the story of this bridge is totally different, this bridge were the last oportunity to see the world outside the jail, when the prisoners were going to killed, they crossed this bridge and that momment was the last one to watch the world... for that, they sigh because in few momments they were going to be dead. Other pictures of thes days are the Rialto Bridge and the Cathedral of St. Marco, they both in the night (they are more beautiful than by the day).
  • Padova: The next day we went to Padova, this is a monument in Padova,

we pass all day in this city and we saw all, the best was the park, I liked this day, but it was better the next day.
  • Ferrara: Awesome town, I liked very much, first we saw the castle, and we walked throw its passages, rooms and roofs, it was fantastic!!!

and then we were going to have lunch and then we rented bycicles and we were going to see all the city and its wall. More things we did, by it was necessary a lot of pages to tell everything.

By the way, the food it was great, and taking in consideration that I don't like so much pasta.

Another night in the Opera

Past wednesday I was in the Opera, this time I watched "Il Tutore Burlato", it was a great spectacle, in which shane the soprano whose voice shone over whatever people of the show.
But for me, the last Opera (La Pietra del Paragone) was better than this one, because it was more people in performance and maybe the people who acted were better.
In conclusion, a great night, but for now, until the next season I couldn't watch other spectacle of these.

Real Madrid Winner -- League Championship 2006-2007

Yesterday, we were watching the last match of Real Madrid in his camp, Santiago Bernabéu, I have to admit I don't really like soccer game, well, a little bit, but a friend of mine invited us to watch the match in the camp, so we went...
It was a funny match, at the first, I prefered Real Madrid lost, because I don't like people who lean to Real Madrid (and to any soccer team)... they are bad-mannered, uneducated ... people, the most part of them, yeah, I know I talk, I have been twice in a camp soccer, but well, yesterday Real Madrid started losing, and I was very happy for it, the most part of the match of the Real Madrid went losing, around 60 minutes, the people was crazy, and angry, they remember of the mother of the referee, the players, etc etc... but well, i was happy.


When Real madrid drawed everything changed, Real Madrid went up and the fans too.
My mind changed too, all people had with Real Madrid, so, in all of this time two both clubs had been indifferent for me, from this momment I started to liven up to Real Madrid.
From the second goal, all the camp became in a party, everyone jumping, singing... It's interenting to see how the people change for a so simple game....
With the third goal the party came to the maximum height, the championship was for Real Madrid and everyone waited the final of the match. This final came, and the party started inside the camp, president, coach and players celebrated their 30th league championship of their history; performance, fireworks, and all type of entertaiment started to liven up the party.
This party lasted around one hour after the match, the players liven up the title jumping and dancing around all the camp.

When Real Madrid win something, the mandatory party is in a monument of Madrid called "La Cibeles", there, all people meet and cheers the title won. So, after the match we went to "La Cibeles", if in the camp had almost 100.000 people, in "La Cibeles" would be around 1.000.000 people, of the city of Madrid went to celebrate the title.
And, that's all, it was a great party, in which, at the first I didn't go it..., and well, Real Madrid won, if he had lost, I could touch the balls to Pedrules and some friends... but, well, that's the life...

Dance Party in Madrid

A lot of time in which I don't have wrote nothing... well, if I don't write anything, my collaborators don't write anything, and the blog doesn't updating... well, this isn't the topic. Past friday we went to a party in Madrid (in "La Rivera"), it was a great party, too much dance... Spain had a big dance party a few years ago, but now, this music isn't the music more listened, latin rythms are more listened, artists like Shakira are very considered and very famous, but a few years ago, a lot of ("artists") people (who their name started with "dj") was the fucking cracks who went club to club to play music and they were very famous, they earned a lot of money, only to play disc, which the most of them weren't theirs.
Anyway, it was a great party, the night club was very big, and there was a lot of people, but the room wasn't full.
Here you can see a video of the night.

Was a really good match because the Real Madrid wins :-P.

In this game plays the main stars of the Real Madrid team: Felipe Reyes, Bullock, Hervelle, Charles Smith, Mumbrú, ...

In the Akasvayu team plays the brother of the NBA player Pau Gasol, his name Marc, his surname the same :-P. The best one of this team San Emeterio.Statistics of this matchIn the first quarter the Real Madrid wins with a very good game, and the rest of the match they offer a mediocre results. With exceptions from many players like Charles Smith or Hervelle.

To sum up, Real Madrid wins 83-72.

A night in the Opera


16th of April we went to the Opera in "Teatro Real" of Madrid, and we saw an Opera of Rossini, the great "La Pietra del Paragone" I have never seen an Opera, and when you haven't seen anyone you can't think about it. The work was great and was divided in two acts, the argument was a story of love.



The best of all was our sits, we had in the second row, in several moments the actors walked throw the row (yes, maybe you can't believe this, but it's true).

An opera is the best sight you can see, I recomend you that if you can you go to see one, because it's fantastic and the more cult sight that you could see...
The opera is expensive, I know, the places where we have sitted costs around 140€ (around $200...), but well, these places was the most expensive, it exists places cheaper, but of course, the spectacle isn't the same....

I took some pictures and videos of the event, you can see in this post.

You can see a mini-video of the opera down here:

The exposition has served for realize me that Escher has been a great artist and to can see very interesting pictures.

Caaaaarrusel Deeeeportivo

A busy weekend, well, in this weekend we have gone to a lot of places and one of them is "Carrusel Deportivo" a radio program in "Cadena Ser" a channel of radio of Spain, this channel is about sports, in special soccer, but it's very funny, i don't like specially soccer and I enjoyed very much because this radio program is very funny and all of happen in the program is very amusing. I went with my brother and with Iniesta, and I took a picture of my brother and the customers of the program.

Another thing that we went this weekend was a visit to "Ala 12" an area base of Spain in which we could see airplanes, and all of relationated with this, well, when we arrived to the base, there was a security control, ok, then, the security control in the radio program (in Cadena Ser) it was harder!!!!.

After Holly Week

Hi guys! We are here again, the Holly Week ("Semana Santa" in Spanish) has passed and we return to the work. Well, I want to tell you one thing which happened me just before to start the Holly Week.
In the company where I work, at wednesday (day before to start the vacation), decided don't work after the lunch, so I had free afternoon. Near 17 h, I went to see clothes in the shops of Madrid (only to see, not to buy, although finally, I bought something... but this is'nt the topic!), and I came into a shop which was recommended by a friend of mine, when i came into the shop I only saw tourist, and then, I was looking the clothes, some shirts, t-shirts and trousers were right, but other clothes were too bad, but... when I saw the price of the clothes......oh my god! Very very expensive, a jeans cost 248 €!!! (around $300) very expensive in Spain, when here a jeans costs 30-90 € (around $40-$120). I had to take a picture of this price... here is:


Other thing that I realized, it happened on Saturday, when I was on a disco, I heard a very simple and shameful song, yes! the song of the summer is already here!!!, it's really shameful, I heard before this song on Internet, in a page where they made fun of the song, and yes, when I saw the song at the first time, i thought, this song is very very shameful, and then, I heard in a disco, oh my god... Well, if you are asking you what song is this, I put you the song here down, but if you want to watch, it's your responsability.....

Bohemian Theater


Past thursday we went to a theater in which one it performed the play of "Eloisa está debajo del Almendro" from Enrique Jardiel Poncela. I hoped to be in a big theater, with a lot of people, and very far from the actors, and it didn't be there... When we was looking for the theater, people who we asked them indicated us the way to the theater, and when we arrived it, we realized that it was a very small theater (at least, that I hope) well, we came in into the theater and we realized again that it was very small, just before to start the play, we realized that the person who takes the tickets was an actor of the play, when we was into the theater we saw that the place where we must to be sat was pretty small, about 60 places (6 rows with 10 places).
The play started at its time, and Cris wasn't with us yet (arrived late), and the play started, the actors came in and came out pretty near of us, the first time we thought they was spectators like us, but not! Cris arrived late, only 10 minuts, and we enjoyed a fantastic play.
Yes, the theater was very small, and the actors was very near of us, but this wasn't an inconvenience, quite the contrary, it was a very big advantage. The play was like a private play for us, because, althought there was 60 places, we was about 20 people.
In the middle of the play there was a stop, and one girl of the play call me, i followed her, and I arrived to a room with the actors, and they said me that I couldn't take pictures about the play ( I have been taking pictures during the first part of the play), I said them that I'm sorry, and if they want, I deleted the pictures, but they said me that this wasn't necessary (they was very polite and friendly with me), and well, I only wanted the pictures to put in this blog and show all people that the play was great!
To finish, I must to say that the play was very very great, I loved it. There was a fantastic actors and it was very funny!.
Finally (really), i want to recommend a blog of a friend of mine, this blog is in Spanish but it treats about some topics that i like very much it, the old movies (like Casablanca, Citizen Kane,...) and American series, this is the link: http://todoamericanadas.blogspot.com/
