Back on da Road / Barcelona





Finally back on the road again after 12 mts .
Our first month is in Spain , then Ruth is going home (back to NZ ) then I will be going back down to Guatemala to pick up my new bike and carry on down to Ushuaia .
Anyway we left home on the 29th August , our first stop was Dubai , for one day . If you like shopping Malls Dubai is for you , because thats about it . I did go up the worlds tallest building at 828mts (and what a beautiful building) . The only problem with Dubai is that it is so bloody hot , I mean really Hot .
We went to a shopping mall for Dinner  and after went get a taxi home , we had to Que for 2hrs (hell im over Dubai )
Next stop after another 12hr flight we arrived in Barcelona
Barcelona is a beautiful City and we are enjoying being here , we have just about walked our legs off enjoying the sites . Check da spot ! to see where we are .

Tomorrow (being the 4.09.11)we are off to pick up a car and head on down to Gibraltar via Madrid , with one month to get there we aren't in a hurry .

Sorry for all the spelling mistakes in all da blogs , but that makes them all the better AH (shit i'm no literary scholar you know )
