Hola! Today is our last day in Barcelona! We have had such a great time! What a difference in culture there is here! The weather has been perfect especially with the cool sea breeze! Since we wrote last we have been very busy! and only in about 20 hours too! We ate dinner out on terrace off of las ramblas of a cafe. We started with individual glasses of sangria rather than a pitcher BUT we probably drank about a pitcher between us! We split the mixed pa...

Awwww!! Barcelona! I almost don't ever want to leave this city!! We started the morning off by taking the metro to Park Guell. It is a famous park designed by the architect Antoni Gaudi. If you dont'know any of his work you should google him and chek it out! He made some of the most elaborate things I have ever seen!! The park was soooo pretty!

We started the day at the internet cafe and a few other places that I wrote about earlier. Then, we went to El Parque de Retiro. It is a BEAUTIFUL par...

Hola mis amigos y mi familia!! We are in Madrid!! After our much needed rest in London at the FANCIEST Holiday Inn I've ever been to it was time to head to the Luton Airport... We left at 4 am--people were still sitting at the bar in the hotel drinking! Rosie and I both envied them!! London was SO cold! I had shorts and a Nebraska t-shirt so I couldn't have looked MORE like a tourist!! The huge backpack didn't help either! Everyone was SO fashionable in Londo...
