Picture at Madrid El Escorial Archway…

From the outside of the El Escorial, all we see is the stone, cold, and harsh walls; but it has a totally different feel once we made it thru the wall. A very warm welcoming is waiting patiently for the residents to come home.

*architecture 101: A wall is a usually solid structure that defines and sometimes protects an area. Most commonly, a wall delineates a building and supports its superstructure, separates space in buildings into rooms, or protects or delineates a space in the open air. (wiki)

Hum… if we gotta dream… why not just dream big! Dream of it and make it happen!

Umm… I really don’t have much to write about today… because I am still dreaming about that big house and garden.
But what I would really prefer is… not a big house or garden but a happy family living in a house together regardless of the size or status, just a happy family understanding each other. Simple, yet not that simple!

About the picture, I took it during my trip to Madrid. Unfortunately it was about to rain as you can see, a storm was coming in! It was so cold that my fingers were freezing and it wasn’t easy at all to take these pictures with my exposed bare hands, yet I did it anyway. Then… it off to find a cafe for a really sweet hot chocolate! Yum!!!!
