Barcelona, Las Ramblas

Eating is a big part of our trip. This is one of many photos of us eating. We're on Las Ramblas eating and people watching. Did you notice the huge glass of Sangria that Peg had (I had my own)? At this point she's already super tipsy. I wish I had the video camera by the time she got half way through because she was drunk! Hahaha... Anyhow I thought this was a cool shot.

Barcelona, Gaudi Cathedral

This is actually the Temple De La Sagrada Familia. Better known as the Gaudi designed Cathedral that is currently under construction. Very unique, very "just-another-interesting-cathedral" to Peg and me. We didn't pay to go in but we did take quite a few pictures from the outside.

Granada, Alhambra Peg in wall

Peg was having some fun and decided to crawl into this hole in the wall at the Alhambra in Granada. hehehe...

Granada, Canons at the Alhambra, Spain

At the Alhambra, plugging my ears because I'm afraid the canon may be loud. Btw, I've added pictures to my flickr account since the blogger upload wasn't working too well. Click on the picture to see more photos at flickr. I'll also continue to make posts. Thanks for the comments!

Sevilla Second Dia

The second day in Sevilla was fun. I'm too tired to comment so I'm just going to post the pics.





Blogger is having issues uploading my pictures, otherwise I'd post more. Sorry, I'll try again later.

Seville, Sevilla - Just Arrived

We just arrived in Sevilla via the high speed AVE Tren. Our hotel is nice but the air conditioning isn't working. We're going to see the sights tomorrow, taking it easy tonight.



Peg infront of the AVE high speed train. This is a clean one, when we got off our train the front was practically yellow from all the bug splatter.


Jerry look! mmmmm.. pasteleria, we stopped by after getting something to eat. On a side note, Peg and I are getting thinner here not because the portions are small but because we're trying to avoid difficult communication confrontations. We're embarrassed we can't communicate. I think we're starting to get better at it. We're being forced to learn Spanish because if we don't we will be either stranded, homeless, or starving. This trip is great! Muy bien, muy bien.


I took a quick snapshot of Peg in front of the Cathedral as we were scoping out our surroundings. We're going to check it out tomorrow.

Bale, adios.

Madrid, May 15 is a holiday

Since May 15 is a holiday here, San Isidro (Madrid's patron saint) Festival, everything was closed. So we just walked around and took pictures from the outside of everything.


Here's me, Jerry, outside of the Cathedral Almudena, it faces the Royal Palace.


Here is Peg in front of the Royal Palace. It is so huge and grand with great views. I can't beleive places like this were built for one person.


This is the Plaza Mayor it was a big enclosed plaza, very cool. Another Chino guy took the picture of us, his English sounded European though. "Say Queso!"


The plus side of being here on a festival day is that tons of locals were out celebrating and in costume. We saw so many kids dressed in these outfits. This is Peg's favorite picture we took in madrid.


We're in front of the Monument to Alfonso XII. Doesn't Peg look happy with her polo de mango y naranja! Yo estoy comiendo un helado de straticella.

Leave us comments when you get the chance so we can read them on the road. Thanks, Jerry.

Happy Mother's Day! and London

Happy Mother's Day! I don't have time to chat, I just wanted to post some pics from yesterday. We've taken tons and I'll try to post a few of them as I get the chance. In Madrid now 7pm going to find the train station and get dinner.


Peg, Phone Booth, Big Ben


Lee-Aye, Fiona, Jerry, Peggy. Thanks Russell for taking the photo.

Car fire

On my way to lunch last month I caught a picture of this car burning at the side of the road. Just thought I'd share. I, Jerry Cheng, took the picture with my cell phone.

After work ride

It's not often that I get to come home early enough to do a quick ride with Peg and her co-workers. This was one of those lucky occasions. I caught up with Phil, Peg and Pat's family.

Pat's family is on the quad with Pat, Anya, Katia, and Collette. Isn't it awesome to see their whole family on a bike!
