Caribbean Blues











Last week, finally I took my films (some, very old ones) to the Lomography Shop in Spitafields Market to be developed. I mention them in what it would appear to be a sponsored post but it's not (I wish), just because I think the service it's been brilliant. The physical photos are yet to be send to my house but in the meantime they sent me a link with all my photos digitalised and ready to be downloaded to my computer or uploaded to my Lomo home. I think is awesome!

Anyway, let's start this rainy blue Monday with some memories from happier blues back in Los Roques this January.

Hope you all have a super nice week! x

Los Roques II


Morning light in the Gran Roque. Right next to our posada.


Empanadas Shop. 


 El Faro.


 One of the many many dogs that live in Los Roques.

Francisqui de abajo.

Kite Surf School in Francisqui de Abajo.

Kite Surf School.

Beautiful warn white sand in the almost deserted beach.

 Odyssey II. Best or worst name for a boat?

 Kite.

 Full rainbow, just before a quick storm. 
(That happens approximately every 2 hours in Los Roques)

Dog in window.

 This shop is right next to the airport. Duty Free?

 Pelicanitos.

 People waiting for the plane. The airport is right next to this pier.

 Next to the airport.

Peligro. 


Our plane is here but we don't want to go... ever! :(


I uploaded a mini video (absolutely raw) of Los Roques Airport space/pier/beach, so you can see how the last 5 photos are connected in space.

Los Roques, Venezuela, mamá, sun, Caribbean sea, warm weather I miss you!

Los Roques I

Francisqui.

The only Francisqui Restaurant.

My other permanent companion.

Boats and El Gran Roque far away.

Sandy, a lovely new friend.

Café Arrecife / La Merienda.

My mum taking photos behind the tree.

Sunset in El Gran Roque.

Kids, dogs, houses and a Christmas tree.


 Los Roques, I'm sure is one of the most beautiful places in Earth. It's an 'archipiélago' that means: a chain of islands and coral reefs in the Caribbean Sea about 166 km north of Venezuela. According to Wikipedia there are approximately 350 islands, cays and islets in a total area of 40.61 square kilometers.

Starting this year spending three days there was an amazing privilege (thanks mum, you are definitely the best!), and watching the photos again while there's zero degrees outside it's keeping me warm and happy.

There will be another post with some more pics. This place is so beautiful that is impossible not to go crazy taking pictures ;)

Phil

It's the same thing your whole life:
"Clean up your room. Stand up straight.
Pick up your feet. Take it like a man.
Be nice to your sister. Don't mix beer and wine, ever."
Oh yeah: "Don't drive on the railroad track."


Gus

Well, Phil, that's one I happen to agree with.





Feliz día de la marmota :)

Para la ver la predicción de Phil, pincha aqui.

Bipolarity goes a long way

.




Drowning / Floating

Insomniac / Somniac

Useful / Useless
Thoughtful / Numb

Loud / Mute

Crowded / Alone

Maybe / Definitely


I'm loyal to my bipolarity.
Make no mistake about it.
