Yesterday we took off for Barcelona as you recall. It was a hell of a day !!!!! However, no complaints, seeing some beautiful sights.. Spent 7 hours in the Dubrovnik airport. Flight was delayed a few times.
Air was turbulent and as you may or may not know Susan has a fear of flying and as the turbulence got worse she grabbed my arm with her sweaty palms and screamed to the fellow passengers that we are all going to die!!!!! No Lie, I swear this is true. After sufficiently shushing her several times, she clutched her bottle wine as if it would save her, tears streaming down her face. There is not one bit of exageration in this accounting.
We arrived in Barcelona at 6:30 pm , despite susans proclamation of near death and headed off to take the train to our hotel, in a effort to save 50 euros on cab fare. Learning the public transportation in chicago is challenging, try learning it in spain, when your tired and have a 60 pound backpack strapped to you. It seemed that we walked endlessly in the underground tunnels of Barcelona. However, we managed to find our way out and checked into our hotel.
Not deterred from our day long trip, we threw our backpacks down in the room and headed out for tapas. Barcelona is a romantic city with interesting people. We have a full day of sight seeing planned. Keep you all up to date .
Love to all,
