Oye, rubia: Rooftops V
http://oyerubia.blogspot.com/2011/08/rooftops-v.html
Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Tuesday, August 9, 2011. Círculo de Bellas Artes. My new favourite roof (a steal at euro a visit). Best views of the city I've seen so far and a photo exhibition with a hilariously bizarre image (see below). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I live in Dubai now. 7 hours 55 minutes blog. Cracks me up ♪♪. El Demonio en casa - Ricardo Arjona (click on picture to listen). Very) Sporadic blogger living in Dubai, albeit whilst racking up the air miles to Madrid!

Oye, rubia: Mini breaks close to Madrid 1
http://oyerubia.blogspot.com/2012/02/mini-breaks-close-to-madrid.html
Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Saturday, February 18, 2012. Mini breaks close to Madrid 1. There's lots of possibilities around Madrid for those who fancy escaping the city (and pollution) for a weekend or a couple of days. Here are 2 of my favourites. The town contains the fakest looking real castle I've ever seen but the Natural Park of La Piedriza has some fab trails for hiking as long as you don't lose your way on the trail as night falls (like we did). Is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Oye, rubia: September 2010

Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Animadrid - Animated Film Festival. Ventured into the Madrid suburbs today for Animadrid. The annual animated film festival hosted in Pozuelo (pause for useless celebrity fact - Ronaldo lives here). Saw some adorable animated shorts which I enjoyed as much as the kids in the audience. Definitely worth a visit before it finishes next Thursday. Particuar highlights from the screening I attended were;. Labels: events and festivals.

Oye, rubia: June 2011
http://oyerubia.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Monday, June 20, 2011. La Casa Encendida (aka Rooftops III). I've been meaning to big up La Casa Encendida. Here for a while. Discovered it a couple of months back and it's fast becoming one of my favorite places in Madrid. Check out some snaps from the weekend, hung out in the garden and then headed to the screening of the somewhat bizarre Aardvark. Friday, June 17, 2011. This picture doesn't really tell a thousand words. But it made me laugh. The protests in...

Oye, rubia: November 2010

Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Saturday, November 27, 2010. Saturday afternon shopping followed by cramming into El Tigre for drinks and tapas = perfection. Drinks are super cheap and the food is free and in generous helpings. Love it (especially just before pay day when poverty strikes). Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Arcade Fire at Palacio de los Deportes. A. Ma. Zing. Interpol - the weekend before - not so great. Good effort on Paul Wards part to practice his Spanish though. Ethereal temp...

Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Friday, December 31, 2010. We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. Halfway up La Pedriza, Manzanares el Real, Sierra de Madrid. September 2010. I have no idea where I'll be after my Madrid contract ends in June. Bring on the adventure. Monday, December 20, 2010. Homage to Spanish fashion 2. Saturday, December 11, 2010. Christmas is a coming!

Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Monday, February 28, 2011. Now the distance to VLC is measured in minutes. I heart the new highspeed AVE but RENFE should really lower their prices. 90euro for a journey of less than 2 hours is excesive. Even if they show Two and a Half Men en route. Another bathroom / Make Bike Not Car. No toilet roll in this one either (see previous entry. Sunday, February 20, 2011. Just back from Salamanca, some excellent graffiti lurking around the city this weekend.

Snippets of a life in the capital of España. Sunday, January 30, 2011. Whilst queuing at Starbucks in Principe Pío yesterday I was lucky to catch the beginning of a flash mob courtesy of the Coro Gospel de Madrid. What a talented bunch of people. Unfortunately I didn't get around to making a vid or snapping a pic, but my Youtube search threw lots of other Madrid flashmobs. Check out some of the better ones. Monday, January 24, 2011. With everyone from the Irish Times. Sunday, January 23, 2011. Rewatched ...
