A Fun Day Out With Friends

Image
I think the last Fun Day Out I had with my wife and 2 friends in Algarrobo a couple of weeks back. It was actually with one of my oldest Chilean friends, Silvina, and her partner, Jorge. They have a plot of land (a parcela) about 20 minutes from Algarrobo and they invited us there for lunch, and to spend the afternoon together.  I've know Silvina since 1996. She was a student in my first teaching job in Chile at UMCE, where she was training to be an English teacher. Her and Jorge have been together for about 20 years and we've often spent time together over the years. Jorge has a great sense of humour and he is really easy going. We both share a similar taste in music too. When we were younger (ha, ha) we used to go out dancing, often to Blondie or some clubs in Bellavista.  We have also been to dozens of concerts together over the years too. Anyway, I guess we arrived at their place at about midday. The sun was out but it was quite cool. Silvina & Jorge had cooked us a veg

New York Web Quest

 Hi Fau Bloggers: Today I'd like you to do a web-quest on New York, and at the same time discovery some interesting things about this iconic city.  I've been in New York twice. The first time for 8 hours, and the second time. just 8 days. Both times I met up with a childhood friend, Martin, who lived in the city for about 20 years. Martin and I played in a band together when we were younger.  He's a really amazing drummer. He actually played for a number of underground punk or post-punk bands in New York and became a well know figure on the underground scene there (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXyv-Ww5hg8).  Anyway, the week I spent in New York was amazing in so many ways. One really cool thing is that every corner you walk around, you encounter a scene from a Hollywood movie.  Of all the things I did in NYC, I think my favourite would be a tie between taking a 2 hour boat ride around Manhattan Island, and walking over Brooklyn Bridge. Anyway, please complete the web-que

Five Favourites

Image
 Hi Fau Bloggers. Today I'm going to ask you to write about 5 favourites & why. The categories are: A song, a film, a piece of technology, a book, and a souvenir or trinket. The song I'm going to share with you is a song from 1971 by David Bowie called Quicksand. I really love the lyrics and all the images they conjure up. Bowie was about 24 years old when he wrote this song but he sounds so wise. I love this track because it reminds me of my youth (as well as demonstrating Bowie's versatility). My favourite film is most probably Brazil by Terry Gilliam. Released in 1985, it's is a "dystopian science fiction black comedy" (Wikipedia), which I must have seen at least 10 times. Actually, it's a nightmarish love story. I love it because it has so many bits of hidden humour. It may look a little dated nowadays but I still think it's amazing. A piece of technology I use a lot is my Macbook laptop. I bought it refurbished in the UK during COVID, mainly t
