Borrón y cuenta nueva.
Con el sombrero rojo podemos decir : “Me pongo el sombrero rojo y digo que me parece que esta idea no va ha dar resultado”.... ante esta expresión no tenemos porque pedir el “¿por qué?”, pues el sombrero rojo nos protege de esta pregunta: ¡Es nuestra opinión! El sombrero rojo cubre dos amplios...

So the time finally came for the flight to Barcelona! I had made it for late Friday night so I could still watch the boys but after figuring trains and buses into the equation, I ended up leaving before they got home from school, so I should have made it for earlier in the day, but oh well. I took a bus from Brescia to the airport and checked in...

Although it was sad to leave Santa Suzzana we are all lookin forward to Baracalona because some french dudes we met sad there is a free festival on a beach where DJ Tiesto would be playing. After hours of battling our way through dense suburbs on the outskirts of the city we finally made it. After locking up o...

Friday morning I was feeling ambitious and woke up before sunrise to do yoga on the beach while the sun was coming up. It was wonderful! (but probably won't happen again because I had to wake up at 5:30) I then went for a walk because I love walking around the city before it wakes up and I was waiting for a store to open so I could get some ster...

Today I woke up with the realisation that this was it; my last full day in a place that I was starting to get used to, especially the bread... olives... turrón... tapas...! Barcelona was clearly upset by my imminent departure as the skies opened up and it rained all morning. Don't cry for me, Barcelona =þ I stayed at home all morning waiting for...

Well we had a interesting day to say the least. Well first Paul and I got up early ( which later would prove to be a bad idea) to go and see the globe theatre( yes I realized I called it the round theatre, you try opperating on no sleep) It was great. We even got to see practice for that nights production of A Midsummer Nights Dream. After that ...

Europe part 1 started with my parents and younger sister which was good. We ended up in Ireland to start with and visited both Shannon and Cork. After several days there, I went off on my own to Spain to try and meet up with some friends there and GREATLY underestimated how much this trip would cost me. My lack of funds turned out to create an i...

Our time in Granada was great. We met lots of fun people, wandered the streets, and spent an evening on an Adalusian hillside listening to Spanish guitar and looking out over the Alhambra and the beautiful city. We also visited the cathedral, which was huge and amazing and mindblowingly ornate - gold leaf everywhere, fantastic carvings, giant pa...

Hola!! After the chaos and cancelled flights at many airports in the UK on the Thursday - we had no problems getting to Barcelona from Liverpool airport on the Friday - lucky I think we were leaving from a relatively small airport! Apparently out of 787 flights flying to Spain on that Thursday - 700 were cancelled!! We arrived almost three hours...

Party in the rain! The morning was grey and misty; not a lot of motivation for me to get up and get moving. My body was a little achy; it wasn't raining yet, but I was forecasting it to start up soon. And I was right. Two hours later it was pooring. ARGH! No fun, I had to go out to get my passport in the rain! I took my sweet time; it was early ...
