I had to get up early today to head into the Gothic quarter to go with the tour group to head to Andorra. I thought I was originally late, because I had timed everything based on public transit, but because of the phone issues I didnt trust my old phone to function correctly, so I... Continue Reading →
Sagrada Familia and Gaudi things
Today, unfortunately, we woke up to rain. In my head I had hoped it would clear, even though the weather had called for it for the last few days. It wasnt raining hard, but enough to put a damper on the morning. We enjoyed our breakfast and another easy morning before heading out to the... Continue Reading →
Banksy, Kaws and some good food
This morning we got to "sleep in" - we didnt have to be anywhere until 10am - so we got to take a leisure morning. Our first stop was a museum called Moco - it is a modern art museum that has two of my favorite artists and I learned had many more!! From original... Continue Reading →
Day trip to Mallorca
Today we headed to the island of Mallorca. We had to be up early (like 545am) in order to get ready and to our flight on time. Lauren let me know she is NOT ok with this non-stop traveling, so tomorrow we will be taking it a bit easier. But today, we are going to... Continue Reading →
The Paper Store and more….
Our morning started with a fancy coffee for Lauren before we got on the Hop on Hop off bus tour. We made it about 3/4 of the way through the bus tour before we got off to check out the Lego store and grab a snack. We built our own little "selves" out of Lego... Continue Reading →

The abbey is known for the Virgin of Montserrat - a wooden virgin Mary statue that you can go up and touch.... Continue Reading →
Barcelona We Are Here!
March 7 - My first travel day started by me heading to Los Angeles for work. Which ended up being comical because of all the bags I had with me (backpack, bum bag, travel duffel, duffel with all my work stuff in it). I got to LA earlier than I needed to, but I figured... Continue Reading →
Golden Monkies and middle seats
August 14, 2024 Today was another early day -645am pick up to go to the golden monkeys. The property has a guard house (every one of the hotels/guest houses Ive seen in this country have a security guard or guard house) and he must have been snoozing this morning because my driver had to honk...

Johannesburg
August 9, 2024 I got to sleep in today because my tour guide wasnt picking me up until 920 - 930. I got up and had breakfast (its free in my hotel!) which had even more options than the Prague hotel, just no honeycomb this time - but they do have Nutella. My tour guide,... Continue Reading →
Prague to Joburg
August 7, 2024 and August 8th morning PB has to leave for the airport at 9am today, so we set our alarm to go eat breakfast and leave a bit of a time to go to the grocery store to get some candy for his office. We said our goodbyes and he got in his... Continue Reading →
