Marbella At Night

A couple of weekends ago (I know, I know, I'm still behind) I took a spontaneous trip to Marbella. Marbella is a city in the province of Malaga, and about 30 minutes away from Malaga capital (where I live). While Marbella is an immensely beautiful city with it's own sub-climate which actually makes it warmer than Malaga, it is more widely known as being a vacation spot for the super rich. There is an area of Marbella called Puerto Banus that literally looks like an episode of "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous." 

In this one area I counted at least six Bentley's, two Lamborghini's, two Ferrari's, and this new, all-white, four door Porsche Panamera that was to die for (I don't know if I ever mentioned it but I l-o-v-e cars so I definitely enjoyed this area). As if all of these luxury cars in about a three block radius wasn't enough, the tourists who didn't feel like getting the Bentley out of storage just pulled their multi-million dollar yachts directly up to Puerto Banus :)

Unfortunately, I did all my sightseeing in Marbella at night because we went to the pueblo during the day (more on that later), so here are a few shots. 

This was probably one of the weirdest statues I've ever seen. All I kept thinking was "why can you see that horse's ribs?"

Me and my friend Christina. Please excuse my awkward poses but this fountain had so many different colors and they were all so brilliant!

What I'm Listening To

Ever wondered what type of music they listen to in Spain? Of course there are plenty of Spanish artists here who are very popular, like Los Delincuentes, and there are also some artists who are based out of the US, like Rihanna and Maroon 5, that "get a lot of shine." 

But, if I had to pick the most popular song here in Malaga now I would have to say: 

Michel Teló - "Ai Se Eu Te Pego"

This song is ALL over the place. They play it in all the discotecas, I personally played this song atleast 100 times last weekend, and I've counted atleast 5 times that my roommate has played this song today! One cool thing about this song is that the singer is from Brazil, and the song is in Portuguese. Even though myself and the majority of the people here in Spain can't understand it, everybody still loves this song!

I likes it so much that I looked for some more of his songs and found one that I l-o-v-e.

Michel Teló - "Fugidinha"

And again, no idea what he is saying, but I'm loving this song right now :)

Scenes from El Rastro

 El Rastro is a huge open air flea market that happens every Sunday morning in Madrid. There are hundreds of vendors selling anything and everything you can think of, and El Rastro literally occupies a few city blocks. This was my first time going and I was impressed by the size of the market, and the amount of people who came to shop.

This random apartment I saw on the way to El Rastro. Yes, that is a mannequin. 

Look closely at the brand name.

The streets llena de gente.

Laugh Of The Day

I meant to post this last week (please see the preface on the post below), but I didn't get a chance to. In the spirit of Halloween, I came across these pictures, from some sort of haunted attraction, and some of them literally made me laugh out loud. I know I can be goofy, but I hope you get a laugh out of these too :)

Really sir, you're hiding behind your girlfriend??

Look at the girl's face who is the second from the right. 

Lmao, this guy's face is priceless.

Haha, that guy in the blue was out!
