Wow!
Hi guys Just read your Barcelona blog and viewed the pics. All I can say is "Wow!" The city, the architecture, the beach, the scenery... it is breathtaking. Brings back memories for me as I was there for a day when I was 15 (part of a Mediterranean school tour). Definitely remember the Sagrada Familia! Of course the weather looks absolutely fabulous, especially when you consider that we are dealing with lows of -5, highs of -1 and snow flurries on and off! (No jealousy here, not one bit!) We all enjoyed Thanksgiving yesterday and tried to forget about the weather! Anyway, looks like you are all doing well and enjoying your travels. I can't wait to hear about the next segment of your journey. Lindy
