Saturday - November 2

Hello from beautiful Barcelona, Spain where we are soaking up so much history and enjoying this beautiful, charming city and all it's architecture and charm!    Having a wonderful time with Paul and Kathy and been walking, walking, walking - along with eating up a storm (tapas, paella, pastries, and then wine, sangria and beer)!!!!   
 
We enjoyed our short time in Lisbon, too, and looking forward to when we return in a week .   
 
The ship departs this afternoon from Barcelona, so Kathy and I have some browsing at the shops and pick up some chocolate treats (very big here).
 
November 1 (All Saints Day) is a very big celebration day in Spain......many businesses and schools were closed.    Dancers were performing, music was playing and it was quite a joyous day.    After a long day of touring Barcelona, we went to 6:00 Mass at the Cathedral.     The BIG highlight of our day was touring the Sagrada Familia (enormous basilica that was started in 1882 by Gaudi and expected to be finished in 2026 - UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!
 
And now....here's our babies on their First Halloween!
