On our last day of activities in Barcelona, we took the public shuttle to the premium shopping outlet for luxury brands, La Roca Village.

I was disappointed because I thought we were going to have our own private shuttle. But Cynthia said it was better to take the public shuttle because she was expecting that some of us would want to be back in the city sooner than the others. She had a point, but still I wanted to ride in a private shuttle because it would be more convenient.

Cynthia bought the tickets for us and walked us to the bus stop. We waited for about half an hour.
We were the firsts to board and our group occupied a good portion of the bus.

The bus went around the city picking up more passengers. The last time I remembered was that I had no seatmate. When I woke up, I was leaning on the shoulder of a huge white guy who looked like a Russian. For a few seconds, I was disoriented and just stared at him and wondered who he was. He was so big that his right thigh encroached on my area so my skinny left leg was touching his right thigh.

The bus was so masikip and I flet claustrophobic. I had anxiety attack and migraine. I couldn’t breathe. There was a wifi and I kept on messaging Edmund that I didn’t feel well. He became worried and advised me to stop the bus and get off and go back to the hotel. I couldn’t, we were already in the highway. I closed my eyes and tried to psyche myself. In about 20 minutes more, we reached our destination.

When I got out of the bus, and when the cold breeze hit me, I felt a lot better. Parang akong nakahinga ng maluwag.

I immediately Vibered this photo to Edmund.
E—“Oh akala ko ba nahihilo ka?”

I felt a lot better when I saw the two chick-chicks.

Until now I still don’t know exactly what to do with the small plaza I plan to have at the entrance of our mini farm. Shall I put a fountain, a pond, just grass and benches, flowers, I don’t know yet. What I know is that I want it to be simple but cute. Well, we’re too busy to continue that project, I have to time to look around, take photos of somethings I could probably copy, like this pond. I don’t like the crocodiles though.
