there is no Guiness on Aer Lingus




someone needs to talk to Aer Lingus management. ¿how does the Irish flagship airline only serve dutch & singapore beers on-board? (as you cansee, I found the upside down question marks on the spanish keyboard. i plan to use them lots).

pretty uneventful trip over here, which is always good. took a minivan cab with Graeme over to the Ibis hotel. despite the angry protests from the cabbie, both bikes fit fine. after building the bikes up, we went to El Corte Ingles dept. store to get water & maps. I can´t believe how much we over-pay for bottled water at home - here it was 13 cents for 1.5 liters.

(when we get access to upload our pictures, I´ll show you evidence of the Spanish infatuation with ham...wait for it).






did touristy stuff, live visited the temple of the Sagrada Familia and had dinner off las ramblas. it will also be more interesting when I show a photo of it.





I´ll leave you with the other cool letter I found on the keyboard... Ç. I have no idea what it does, since I don´t speak the Catalan dialect. Castillian Spanish has worked fine in getting us around though.

That's interesting! Singapore beer like tiger beer?
