Last Day in Barcelona

Well, the time has finally come for me to start packing everything up and prepare to head back to the comfort of the states. However, over the past week a lot of things have happened that I think that I'll update you on.

Last Friday Leah arrived, finally after quite a bit of airline trouble. She says that she has never flet so famous as when she arrived at the airport. Apparently, a little crowd and it all goes to her head! "It was Amaaaazing"...yeah, right ;-) She and I then spent some time around the city and went back to studio for studio clean-out.

After that we took the Metro to Placa Espanya and walked up to and through Montjuic. We found a nice little clearing that overlooked the entire city and the sea, about half way up the way to the castle. I then smoothly (if I do say so myself) asked her to spend the rest of her life with me. Suprisingly she said yes! :) This picture is really amazing primarily due to the fact that about one one hundredth of a second after this picture she had the "super suprised face" Let's just say THAT would have made for an interesting picture!

We have spent most of the rest of the week viewing a lot of the interesting parts of Barcelona (sagrada familia, parc guell, the beach, casa mila, the apartment watching american tv, etc etc.) One of the hightlights however was when we went to the "Ice Bar" which is literally a bar completely made out of ice. More pictures will follow, but after a day at the beach (in which some fair skinned people got toasted) nothing felt better than spending about half an hour in a parka and hat with matching mittens in a cooler at -7 degrees celsius.

As today is our last full day in the city, we have lots to do and see (the beach, the beach, and the beach)...I'm definately looking forward being stateside and enjoying some food that I can actually order. One dozen boneless hot wings and a dortmunder!

I hope this finds everyone well and the next time I write, hopefully I'll be stateside!
