Barcelona at last.

Hello, all! Thanks for your awesome comments on my last post! (As you may have noticed, even though this is MOM'S blog, I seem to be the one posting everything....*rolls eyes* but it's fun! So I don't mind at all!)
We are now in Barcelona. It is a rather large city, located directly on the coast of Spain. There is a wonderful beach, we all learned from experience. We visited that wonderful beach for more than half of our day, and we all got a wonderful tan in the wonderful weather (sorry, practicing paralell construction. I think that's what it's called, right?).
I will post some pictures of the beach after I finish posting, but here's all about the rest of our wonderful day. (Sorry again, I'm in a wonderful mood and need to use that word a lot. It's simply wonderful.)
After we returned from the beach, we rested for awhile. We then headed off on our fantastic quest to find the "best paella in Barcelona." Oh, yes, I completely agree with the internet and guidebook ratings. What we consumed tonight was not of this earth. It was something more, a dish of unfathomable deliciousness.
The paella is impossible to describe, so here are some pictures.

 Nina and I at the beach. We got a wonderful (overused word) tan.

 Sailboats in the sunset. Ooh, alliteration!

FEAST YOUR EYES. THIS IS THE PAELLA.




Well, thanks for tuning in for another bloggin' session. Be sure to catch us tomorrow!

  1. I believe in my heart that you will take your familia to la Sagrada Familia while you are in Barcelona. That is on my "top 3 favorite things in Spain" list.

    Have you seen any dripping, drooping, wonky, gaudy, Gaudi architecture? That too is fun.

    Great pictures. Who is taking them? Where do you go after Barcelona?

    I'm loving this blog. Keep on having a great time.

    And lastly, do not, I repeat DO NOT get swindled by one of the pea in a pecan shell quick-change con-artists on Las Ramblas. That happened to er... a "friend" of mine.

  2. Sarah - I love that you are working on your writing - parallel structure and alliterations all in one day? Muy bien! I would do almost anything to be in that sun!!! The picture of you and Nina on the wonderful beach looks a little like San Diego.
    Have fun!
