What's on your mind right now?

[reamary]

Which part of Canada was the study tour?

It would have been all over! Toronto, Ottawa, Montréal, Québec, Victoria and Vancouver... A real once in a lifetime experience for those who were chosen to participate! I honestly thought I had a chance too but guess I wasn't lucky enough. Too bad I won't be able to try another time next year, as I should be graduating around next Christmas.

But I just now got the idea of starting to save up for a trip to Québec for my 30th birthday...! I think that would be a great idea!

I'd also love to go to Canada! The closest I've been to it is St. Cloud, Minnesota. It's gorgeous up there and I bet Canada is gorgeous as well.

 

I hope you do get the chance to go, Reamary!

Thanks!

And yes, Canada must be SO gorgeous. One day we'll see it with our own eyes!

[LuisMa]

Yes, and I'll be chasing Del down to make him pay for his bad wishes towards my weather!

Now the situation will look like this:

Luis, what's the most famous landmark in Barcelona?

[LuisMa]

I took a picture of it the other day from the bus, lemme look for it.

[LuisMa]

Well, it looks really small here:

 

 

 

It's called La Sagrada Familia, and it's an awesome church that they're still building.

 

Here's some info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagrada_Fam%C3%ADlia

[Jeff Abbott]

Yes and who designed it?

[LuisMa]

Here's a better picture I took a couple of years ago:

 

 

 

Gaudí designed it. It's in wikipedia, so READ.

Well, I remember that back in time during one of the speaking exams I got a similar picture and I was supposed to describe it. I said something like "this picture shows ..... and it was designed by Gandhi. The examiners were not impressed, let me tell you. Edited June 3, 2013 at 09:31 PM by Jeff Abbott

[LuisMa]

OMG

 

Now you made me laugh!

 

Probably Gandhi and Gaudi are both wherever they are.

Recently in one of the TV game shows there was a question about the designer of that building and the memories miraculously came back.

[Jeff Abbott]

OMG

 

Now you made me laugh!

 

Probably Gandhi and Gaudi are both wherever they are.

Well, in Polish both names are pronounced almost the same hence the confusion.

Don't even ask me who invented the light bulb? I might answer it was Alexander Graham Bell (another example of my witty exam answer)

[LuisMa]

Yes, it wouldn't be a good to ask you that! Edited June 3, 2013 at 09:44 PM by LuisMa

[Jeff Abbott]

By the way, Luis are you aware you were born on the Polish Independence Day?

I, on the other day, was born on The Miner's Day.

[LuisMa]

Miner's Day, huh? No wonder why you are always looking for things "underground"

 

And also you're covered with soot and dirt and you're always doing the dirty laundry.

 

EX-POSED!

Don't move your eyebrows too much, they might fall off. I can take soot, but dirt

Sounds like a wonderful trip they are planning, but they should add the East coast as well. You should start saving for your 30th. That would be a great celebration.

I'd also love to go to Canada! The closest I've been to it is St. Cloud, Minnesota. It's gorgeous up there and I bet Canada is gorgeous as well.

It's certainly beautiful. Lots of different landscapes as you move across the country.

[LuisMa]

Shake the soot off your boot-y.

[LuisMa]

I'd really love to visit.

 

So start preparing your amazing lobster dish, as I'll surely have an appetite!

[Del]

Luis you must mean... I should start preparing all the dishes that I cook as you'll be bringing your appetite. lol

[LuisMa]

Yes!

 

And so that you see I'm not the evil wolf you think I am, I'll bring some paella and sangría.

[Del]

sangria... oh dear

[DionFanAlways]

Don't move your eyebrows too much, they might fall off.

Too funny

[celine-rc]

Nyc was great ! I love that city so much! Now, I'm sick of school but I don't want it to finish in a way since it's the end of high school. I am going to see S's husband tomorrow to give him her card... Stressful. I know that she will like it thouhgh.

[Bell]

Good morning!
