Hello,

needed to escape because was feeling old so I went to singapore for the weekend. Had a great time with a great group of people. Good company and a local’s view of Singapore. Seafood buffet, art exhibition, Lee Kuan Yew (1st Prime Minister of Singapore) in a golf buggy, Marina Barrage, Singapore sling @ Raffles Hotel, no tickets left for Universal Studio, so roller coaster became electric bicycles, shopping malls, way too much food and lots lots lots of laughs. Tired now. Old people get tired easily you know. Alternate name for email = “birthday weekend”. Enjoy the pic

Big love,

Shi

I found Madrid to be more interesting than Porto – it had that mix of history and modernity. Because I understand a lot of people get bored by churches, palaces, galleries and museums, I’m listing the places I went to here:

Royal Palace & gardens
Puerta de Alcalá
Parque de Retiro
Museo Naciona del Prado
Caixa Forum (by Herzog & de Meuron)

In summary – I liked it, I had fun

Took the night bus from Madrid to San Sebastian – woke up on my birthday on the beach! Was so happy. San Sebastian is a gorgeous seaside town but also with city walls that date back to 800BC. Just cruisy, walked to the top of the hill with fort and the giant Jesus, sat on the beach..

Took the bus to the Guggenheim, Bilbao. Amazing building, really good exhibits – loved the one by Richard Serra & Jeff Koons. I’ve been a huge fan of Richard Serra for years, his works are these huge pieces of treated metal that compress and expand space as you walk through them.

Went back to London, really tired but happy
Shi.

ps: will send the rest of the collages..some other time :p
