What a wonderful vacation spot! It has been about 5 years since I've been to Barcelona, but I realized quickly why I remembered loving it so much! Although we only had about 1 1/2 days to see the city, we were able to see everything we wanted to see. On Saturday, we headed down to the beach to walk around a little bit. We didn't expect the weather to be so wonderful and we were able to spend some of the day relaxing by the water. It was about 65 degrees and sunny. After we spent time in the sun, we walked through Las Ramblas, the market, and El Ravel. We also saw La Sagrada Familia Church (picture below) and Santa Maria del Mar. 
At night, we were able to go to my friend, Josh's, favorite bar and have some great sangria! We ate some unbelievable food too! I forgot how much I loved Spanish food since it's really hard to find good Tapas or paella in the US, but I made up for lost time. We ate at great restaurants and really had a great time! We were able to do more sightseeing on Sunday before heading back to Bonn late last night.
We have quite a week ahead of us as well. It's Brian's last week as a TLP and also the start of Carnival! We have 14 people who are dressing up like Bananas and all attending parties from the 18th-24th! We have 2 of our friends from Augusta staying with us, 2 of our friends from Fort Worth here, Lacy and her friend visiting as well! It's going to be such a great end to our 6 months abroad!

However do you keep Brian and I separate?! I also am 'BHag'--somehow I guess you manage to differentiate us! Barcelona sounds wonderful. Enjoy the banana days.
