Oh what a day! This is going to be a long entry. First of all, I think this is the worst trip I have ever been on! Last night before going to bed I asked the lady at the counter how to get to the airport and how long it would take so I would make sure to have plenty of time and not get lost or something. She told me I would have to take the metr...

Hola Todos, I made it to Barcelona yesterday...walked my feet off yesterday and today...what a huge amazing city...I am so overwhelmed.  Truly beautiful and amazing.  I walked to the Mediterranean and dipped my hand in the water first thing.  It was so clean and clear!

Unfortunately we arrived in Barcelona to discover our first mishap in traveling Europe. One of the girls in our traveling party had her purse snatched right out from our sleeper car while we slept! Pretty creepy to say the least. The weirder part is that they took all the cash in her purse, but left her pass port, digital camera/sim card, and cr...

I miss two things right now: My best friend Jack and watching new Summer movie releases with his family. I stayed 3 nights in Barcelona just walking around seeing the city. The Picasso Museum was spectacular as well as the Sagrada Familia chapel, which has been in construction for over 100 years and still isn´t complete. I took a night off and w...

After taking the night train from Paris I pulled into Barcelona where I spent a couple of days.

I met Peg and her family (her brother Ed and his wife Diane, and her sister Lee, and her husband Tim) at the airport where there was already a mini-drama going on. The clerk checked the wrong bag and before I could say, "Where'd it go?" my carry-on bag had been whisked off to the airplane. It took almost 45 minutes to get it back. I promised the...
