Well, I learned that the train would be pretty fast, and when we got on and were already moving. I recorded a speed of 199 kph (124 mph)! It was a pretty nice train ride. The station was also pretty and when we got home, I saw tha...

While we were walking on the rocks near the beach we noticed that there were crabs over there, so the next day we got a net and went to the rocks to catch some crabs. It turned out that Mom was an expert and caught 2 crabs in no time. Once or twice the crabs we caught tried to run away (the crabs were fast), so it was pretty hard to ...
It’s Evan’s birthday (yay!) and he’s been counting down days until today. We decided to go to Oceanogràfic, a humongous aquarium. Evan likes animals and anything that is alive. Such a nature person!

The first animal was a yellow-billed stork and a flock of flamingos. After that there were lemurs. We crossed into the Equatorial forest and saw gorillas, chimps...

Then, Mom, Dad and Evan woke up and we went to show my grandparents Madrid. We went to Palacio Real de Madrid first. They really liked it and we actually saw the king and queen’...

We went to the main rooms first and saw some young people trying to repl...
We decided to go to museums after the journey to Cáceres, Lisbon and Porto, so first we picked Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Spain’s national museum of 20th-century art. When you come the entrance, you see a sign that looks like this: and a thing (i don’t know what it is supposed to be) that looks like ...
