I only got to watch the first couple of minutes of the video. For some reason it's been taking them forever to load. However it was cool to see more of the building that Kamile had posted a picture of. That saying is absolutely beautiful. I also really like the music. I don't have a clue what was being said but the guy had a beautiful voice and the instruments sounded surreal. I'm going to try to watch the rest of the video later when maybe dtube isn't so busy. All of my love to you and all of yours.
