The best week of study abroad was last week because the love of my life came to see me! It was amazing to see him. He arrived on Saturday Nov. 21. He was so tired but I dragged him to see the Monjuic Fountain. When we got there and it started he loved it. The next day we went all over the city. We first walked down to the Gothic area and checked out the cathedral and roman pillars. We then took a rest and sat at Plaza Catalunya. It was so nice. Then we went over to the Arc de Triumph and to park Ciutdella(sp?). At the park we saw the fountain and rowed in little boats. It was like a mini central Park.
We decided to hit up the beach next and just sat and talked and watched the waves come in. We then walked back grabbed a pizza for dinner. It was yummy.
While he was there we also took two day trips. We went to Monserrat and Tarragona. At monserrat we climbed the mountain and at Tarragona we went and saw the Roman Ruins. Each made for a really funny day, great sights, lots of laughs and time together we will remember forever!
In Monserrat we saw the boys chior sing and the black Madonna. We were not really sure what it was but this one lady kept telling us to go go go. The best part by far was climbing and hiking in the mountain. We went up so many stairs that are calves were killing us the next day...well mine more so i guess.
The trip to Tarragona was a blast too. We saw so many Roman Ruins and were both ewwing and awwing over it but by the end of the day were finished. It was really cool. We went to this chinese restraunt and had to wait 20 minutes for the woman to get off the phone with her friend for us to get our ticket and max got this really sick nasty dessert that he kept playing with and trying to eat. It was funny! We laughed so much.
We spent the last day in Barcelona. We ate at a really cool restaurant that had a buffet. The buffet was little boats that would float by with your food in them. It was really cool. They had some scary looking food and some really good stuff. At one point Max was like it was good i just dont want to know what i ate!
The week together was amazing but made for a horrible goodbye. I cried at the airport and wanted to leave with him....2 weeks and 5 days seems like its going to take forever! haha! But i know going back and being able to talk about our time in europe and laugh together will be amazing. Just seeing him my family and my little baby Brooklyn will be nice!
Adios from Barcelona
