day 61


This is Singa, a very playful 1-year-old dog. The problem is that big dogs have less opportunities to be adopted, since they are usually not allowed in HDB (public housing), where most of the people live.

Este es Singa, tiene un año y muchas ganas de jugar. El problema es que los perros grandes tienen menos posibilidades de ser adoptados, ya que no estan permitidos en los HDB (algo asi como viviendas de proteccion oficial), donde la mayoria de la gente vive.

day 60


I like the contrast between the old-stile houses and the skyscrapers

Me gusta el contraste de las casitas antiguas tan pequeñas comparadas con los rascacielos.

day 58


Today's photo is actually Fulvio's today's-photo. We went today for an photo outing together, and since his birthday was a few days ago, I chose one of his pics.

Some music for today too.  Those are some Camaron's song we like:

La foto de hoy es de Fulvio. Hemos salido juntos a hacer fotos, y como su cumple fue el otro dia, he elegido una de sus fotos.

Y un poco de musica para hoy, un par de canciones de Camaron que nos gustan

day 56


This is Sau Sau, a very happy chihuahua, although he is quite "serious" in this pic, hehe!! And he walks very nicely on leash. I didn't like chihuahuas very much, but since we fostered Dora I kind of changed my mind.

Este es Sau Sau, un chihuahua muy gracioso, aunque aqui esta un poco serio, creo que no le ha hecho gracia que le cogiera para hacerle la foto, jeje!! Le gusta mucho salir de paseo, y ademas se porta muy bien.  Desde que tuvimos a Dora con nosotros veo los chihuahuas con otros ojos :)

Singapore is "wrapped" in the national flag in order to celebrate the National day in two week.


Singapore esta "envuelto" con su bandera para celebrar el dia nacional en un par de semanas.


PD. Happy birthday Fulvio!

day 54


I went again to Arab Street and here it is another pics of the The Sultan Mosque. Since it is Ramadan, there are many food-stands around.

La mezquita Sultan desde otro punto. Estos dias hay puestos de comida alredor de la mezquita por la celebracion del ramadan.

day 53


Everyone is getting ready for the National Day, including temples like this one near Telok Blangah Station. (I always see it on my way to VivoCity)

Todo el mundo se esta preparando para el Dia Nacional, incluidos los templos, como este cerca de la parada de Telok Blangah  (siempre lo veo cuando voy al VivoCity)

day 52



I went this afternoon with a friend to the Botanic Garden. Despite the hot weather, it was a very nice walk.

Esta tarde he ido a dar un paseo al Botanic Garden con una amiga. Hacia un poco de calor, pero siempre hay un banco a la sombra para descansar.

day 51


On July 9th (day 39) I went with some friends from the AWA's photography group to Arab Street and Sultan Mosque, and we agreed to share our favorite photo from that day. I was checking mines, and I liked one, but there was something wrong, so I tried Black&White and voilà!
I agree now with a friend who thinks that it's better to take a color photograph and then change it, what do you think?

El 9 de julio (dia 39) fui con algunos amigos del grupo de fotografia de la AWA a Arab St y la mezquita Sultan, y quedamos en compartir nuestra mejor foto del dia. Estaba ahora revisando las mias para enviarla, y me gustaba una, pero habia algo que no me convencia, asi que la he puesto en blanco y negro y... voilà!
Segun una amiga, es mejor hacer la foto a color, y luego cambiarla. Al principio no me convencia mucho la idea, pero creo que tiene razon. Que opinais?

day 50


We went for a walk to the Chinese Garden, and since it is the Snake year this is a good choice for today's photo.

Hemos ido a dar un paseo por el Chinese Garden, y como es el año de la serpiente, me ha parecido una buena opcion para la foto del dia.

Don't need to say where I took it.

It's not easy to walk 3 dogs and take a picture at the same time!!

No es facil pasear tres perros y hacer una foto!!

day 45


These are the movies we took from the library. Thanks to the summer offer, we could take a lot! So far, we just saw "The science of sleep", and we liked it. I recommend it in original version, of course, because the speak in French, English and Spanish, and it wouldn't be the same in only one language.

Estas son las peliculas que cogimos de la biblioteca. Resulta que hay una oferta de verano, y se pueden coger mas peliculas y libros de lo normal. De momento solo hemos visto "The science of sleep", y nos gusto mucho. Por supuesto, mejor en version original, porque hablan en ingles, frances y español, y solo en un idioma no seria lo mismo.

day 44


I like the optical effect of this building, looks like it is only a wall, right? It's located at Beach Rd, near Arab St.

Me gusta el efecto optico de este edifcio, parece que es solo una pared, verdad? Esta en Beach Rd, cerca de Arab St.

day 43



We went to the library@esplanade for some movies, and guess what, there was a NDP rehearsal! It was Navy's turn

Hemos ido a coger unas peliculas de la biblioteca en la Esplanade, y hoy tambien habia ensayo del NDP.

day 42


This bridge reminded me to Takeshi's Castle, hehe!! It is at Haw Par Villa, but I didn't fall into the water when I crossed it :)

And some music for today, a concert from 1986

El puente este me recordo a Humor amarillo, aunque por suerte no me cai al agua cuando lo cruce, jeje!!

Y un poquito de musica para hoy, con un concierto del 86.

We met today at VivoCity instead of Orchard Road.

La clase de chino de hoy ha sido hoy en VivoCity en luegar de Orchard Road.

day 40


These three girls are very scared of people. I tried to approach them several times without much success, but I could walked them this morning with another volunteer, and I hope they get to trust me a little bit :)

Estas 3 perritas tienen mucho miedo de las personas. Despues de varios intentos para acercarme a ellas, esta mañana he acompañado a otra voluntaria para pasearlas, espero que ayude a que se asusten un poquito menos de mi :)

day 39


This is the Sultan Mosque. It is a very interesting neighborhood, there are a lot of shops and cafes, and many things to be photograph. I'm definitely going there again

Esta es la Mezquita Sultan. Es un barrio muy chulo, con muchas tiendas y cafes. Tengo que volver por alli.

day 35


I like going for a  walk on Orchard Road after my weekly Chinese class-meeting. This is ION Orchard shopping mall.

Normalmente me doy un paseo por Orchard Road despues de mi "clase" de chino. Esta es la fachada del centro comercial ION Orchard

day 34


There are many weird statues in Haw Par Villa, but I still don't understand why there is a copy of the Statue of Liberty. Since this statue is one of the American symbols, I think it is a good choice for today's picture. Happy 4th of July!!

De todas las estatuas raras que hay en Haw Par Villa, creo que esta es la que menos entiendo. Pero como la Estatua de la Libertad es uno de los simbolos de Estados Unidos, he pensado que seria una buena opcion para la foto de hoy. Feliz 4 de julio!!

day 33

This is Happy (he deserves the name!), a dog from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), the animal shelter where I volunteer. They also have cats, rabbits and hamsters. I go once a week, since it takes me a while to get there, and also because I have to be there at 8am! But I like it. 

Este es Happy, un perro de la protectora de animales donde voy como voluntaria. Tambien tienen conejos, gatos y hamsters. Voy una vez a la semana, porque tardo mas de 40 minutos en llegar, y porque tengo que estar alli a las 8 de la mañana!

day 32


This is the roof of the Esplanade building. Doesn't it look like many Toblerone bars? I think I want one now....
The building contains a Concert hall, a Theater, a library, and of course, a mall.

Es parte de la cupula del edificio Esplanade. Depende de como lo mires parecen toblerones, verdad?
Dentro hay una sala de conciertos, un teatro, una biblioteca, y por supuesto, un centro comercial

day 31


Probablemente el Marina Bay Sands es el edificio mas conocido de Singapore.  En la terraza tiene una piscina, aunque creo que tienes que estar en el hotel para poder bañarte :(

Marina Bay Sands is probably the most famous building of Singapore. There is a swimming pool  in the terrace, but I was told it is only for hotel guests :(
