Whirlwind
While in Madrid I stumbled across On Site, an architectural exhibition of modern Spanish architecture originally organised by MoMA New York, which was fascinating even though everything was utterly incomprehensible in Spanish.
I took a few photos of the little people in the scale models of buildings, and entertained the brief idea of making a photo series about the secret lives of miniature people, but ran out of time to take enough photos. Here's one of the couple that I did manage to take.
This Sunday I'm heading off on a whirlwind overnight trip to Brugge, in Belgium (yes, again). Why a one-day trip to Brugge? Well that's a long story.
Actually, I'll offer some Belgian chocolates — and a tacky postcard — for the best suggestion:
Why would I take an overnight trip to Brugge?
Post a comment and let me know.

You left something there last time and you have gone to get it back.

There's a chair exhibition on?
Your favourite band is touring there?
The inventor of hot chocolate has left you his/her fortune?

OMG I was so going to say something about a chair exhibition!
Maybe you had to go back and pick up your Belgian wife and children!!!

Would it have something to do with a Golden Cabosse? (A trophy in the shape of cocoa bean, specially created by the artist Claude Rahir...?) Not to mention an entirely exquisite gourmet menu based on chocolate?

Because the Spanish stink and one man can only take so much.

You're having a meeting of your international terrorist organisation in Brugge. You always end with the toast, "Gentlemen...to evil".

You've develeoped a phobia of miniature people?
Posted by: Dan on February 1, 2007
Because you were tied to a million tiny skateboards by the miniature people while you slept. You can now only go where they want to take you. They're going to Brugge overnight. Lucky you have your laptop and mobile phone or this post would have been impossible.

Just because the voices in your head told you to. You always do what they say.

Because Brugge is a magical land of chocolate.
