So we have been in Barcelona for 4 days now.  I am happy to have warm weather again!  The first 2 days were beautiful, the last 2 a bit rainy.  So what's a girl to do but shop when it rains.  Gotta stay indoors right?  I am staring the American financial crisis right in the face and saying "screw you, I'm on vacation!"  Why have good credit if you can't use it?
Met up with a dear friend Michael here in Barcelona.  He got me involved in this bus trip to Madrid for the weekend, I will leave in the morning.  Get to go with people from all over the world, pretty excited about that!  Haven't done much sight seeing while in Barcelona.  We did do a bus tour and we saw a bunch of Gaudi's architecture, amazing!  Also visited Parc Guell which is where Gaudi used to live and it is a park that he helped design.  Gonna leave momma to fend for herself for a couple of days, I think she is looking forward to going at her own pace and seeing what she wants to see.
All in all it has been a pretty amazing trip.  Not looking forward to returning to work but looking forward to coming home.  I return from Madrid late Sunday night and fly home Monday morning.  The time went as fast as it came, I love this ride called life!

Has it already been a month?
I can't believe it's almost time for you to come home! I did miss you, though. I'm looking forward to some serious catching up. Be safe, I'll see you soon!
