Today is Lauren's last day in Barcelona. Her flight doesnt leave until late this afternoon, so we have all day to do the shopping she wants. We need souvenirs, to check out Zara and of course get in one last meal. We took our time this morning packing and heading down to breakfast. After breakfast... 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 →
Montserrat – it’s not a castle on a hill….
Today we chose to go to Monserrat - it's a mountain town about 90 minutes outside of Barcelona. It is a very beautiful mountain "town," that has an abbey, Santa Maria de Montserrat. 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 →
Over the Castle on the Hill….to Inverness
October 10, 2022 It was a bit rough waking up this morning, Lauren said I talked in my sleep and when my alarm went off for the first time apparently I said “noooo” out loud! Anyway, after getting showered and dressed we had to pack our stuff up! We are heading to Inverness today!! But... Continue Reading →
Go Pack, noooooo!!
October 9, 2022 My day started very early this morning, my alarm was set for 330, but I woke up at 3am, so excited to go see my Packers in London! Lauren was not as excited about my early departure, but thankfully I think I was able to be quiet enough to keep her sleeping. ... Continue Reading →
He got a PhD to give free tours!
October 8, 2022 Today we had to get up a bit early, 6am, for a 630am leave to get to Edinburgh. It, of course, was dark when we left and we learned pretty quickly that nothing is open at 630 in the morning, or 7 or 8 for that matter. After a good search (attempt,... Continue Reading →
