Kwame Nkrumah-Acheampong, nicknamed: The Snow Leopard, will be the first skiier from Ghana to take part in the winter olympics. He will be attending the games in Vancouver, Canada. For some reason it made me thing of the movie Cool Runnings. (by the way, there will be a Jamaican bobsled team this year).

Chillin’  with my homie Ruud in Madrid.

One of our friends is getting married and to celebrate his last days as a bachelor we organized a bachelor weekend. We surprised him early in the morning when he went to work and we took him to the Ardennes. Three days with outdoor activities: kayaking, mountainbiking and paintball. Check out the pictures.

Last week I was in Madrid to see my girlfriend and just relax. We have been going to touristic places like Plaza Mayor which is always nice to visit. We also went to Faunia, a quite nice animal park on the border of Madrid, where the animals live in natural looking surroundings, instead of crappy cages.

We also discovered the El Capricho park. It is not as big as El Retiro but much nicer and very good place to have a walk and chill out during weekends (since it’s only open during the weekends). Besides this we went out with my girlfriends’ friends to a cocktailbar where I had a typical spanish beer and afterwards we ended in a bar in the famous Chueca neighborhood, also known as the gay area.
I put some of the pictures online.

This brings back some old memories.
