  • Day 0: The story thus far

    Left Manila yesterday at 8PM. Arrived in Barcelona via Zurich about two hours ago. I’m at Catalonia Avinyo for the night. We change hotels tomorrow as the city of Barcelona is fully booked. While we were claiming our tickets from Zurich, the counter girl asked us “Why is everyone going to Barcelona?!” We’re here for…

  • Nem0ry has spoken…

    First of all this is really cool. I’m blogging from my HTC Mozart. I’m currently in line waiting for check in. Business class, I can’t believe it! What a nice surprise.

In the same way that fashion week is a gathering of designers and…

    Here’s a fun sight. Three of the more “cartoony” balloons include the Snowman, the Flying Barn and what can only be described as a Pirate in a Barrel. The latter is attractive to look at because of the attention to detail — check out the “front” and “back” photos. Best of show: Darth Vader.

  • Hot Air Balloon Series II: FESTO’s Upside Down Twin Balloon

    If you’ve been a regular at the festival, you may have noticed the FESTO balloon + blimp staples in the launches. Now I’m not sure if it was around last year (I didn’t go) but this year, it has an upside down twin. From the looks of it, the balloon is unmanned! Up in the…

  • Anilao in 2:06 and BIG things

    It’s been ages since I made a new dive video. Here’s everything we did in December ’10 – January ’11 compressed into 2 minutes and 6 seconds. These were dives done from Anilao Beach Club and Dive 7000. It’s also the first time I’m actually in the videos while shooting with ‘Bruno’! Thanks to Chie…
