There was a series of mishaps in Barcelona. We didn't get to do things as planned.
Doreen got her bag stolen on our first day there. My lost my hp and some money on our last day there while i was in La Ramblas trying to get some souvenirs at the very last minute. I didn't realise it till we got back and unpacked. By then, it was already too late to make a police report and claim insurance...
*sigh*
Sigh, I don't even want to think how much 350 euros is in MYR.
But despite all that, i believe my faith in human goodness has been strengthed. Because someone found Doreen's bag and actually took the trouble to locate our hostel and return it.
Bless him.
It taught me a valuable lesson on kindness. On compassion. On going the distance to help others. On not letting even the left hand know when the right hand does the giving.
Still, I absolutely LOVE Barcelona and plan to go again before i leave. It's a city totally unsuitable for one night stands - it has an addictive quality to it that makes you want more...
Anyway, wish you all a Merry Christmas, and a very happy new year!
Off to Germany for 6 days next week. Hopefully it wouldn't be too expensive, if not i'll have to end up eating maggi mee everyday and not going into any interesting places cos the money i budgeted for Germany is all gone now...
I wish people would give out angpows for Christmas...
