VALENTINES DAY SPECIAL

On Valentines Day itself, we went for
a San Valentin's meal in GINOS
italian restaurant
the food was quite a disappointment
thou i still happily enjoyed the meal in bliss
we had my all-time love, Lambrusco
the sweet italian wine
I was oddly surprised, n disappointed
there was no sight of roses, balloons in a romantic restaurant as such
Spanish pple dont celebrate Valentines!
boooo~

We slipped off for a romantic wkend getaway
ahhh it was incredibly nice to just relax

Burgos turned out to be such a beautiful, quaint lil city

Hotel Rice
elegantly decored with victorian charms
exquisitely brought out the european flavour

singing out loud songs with silly/funny lyrics
