And 9th Photo of the Day

For those of you that don't know what this is about, ImageStation (Sony's digital photography website) selects every day the best Photo of the Day among hundreds of candidates, most of which are excellent pictures. That's why being chosen Photo of the Day is such a big deal for me :)

Anyway, this new one is a B&W image from the Sky Bridge of the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur that was not included in the original album (it is now). Enjoy it!

One more Photo of the Day

Number 8. This time is one from Central Park, in New York, and one of my favorites. I hope you like it.

Segovia and its Roman Aqueduct

Just a brief message to introduce a new set of pictures to you. This time Segovia, and lovely little town Northwest of Madrid which has what I think is the only intact Roman Aqueduct in the world. Just keep in mind that this aqueduct is over 2,000 years old and that no mortar or concrete (or anything other than their own weight, for that matter) is used to hold the whole thing together. Just unbelievable!

The town also has a lovely cathedran and one of the best preserved Middle Ages castles in Spain. Certainly a mandatory visit if you come to central Spain.

I went there with María, my Catalan friends Laia, Borja and Pablo and Laia's friend from Valencia, Chus.

I also included in the album some pictures "stolen" from Borja, as those of the show at "La Cripta Mágica" (The Magic Crypt, a place with amazing magic performances where María was taken on stage and Chus almost collapsed thinking she could be next), the one with his brand new car (we took pictures next to it at the car dealer; I know, very uncool, but it was my only chance of ever being seen next to such a nice convertible) or the ones having dinner at Mosaiq, a very nice Marroquian restaurant.

Next pictures will be of my visit to Rome beginning of March, the city where my father was born and a place I've longed to visit for many many years. Stay tuned!
