Barcelona: Day 4 & 5

Nick arrived on Friday and we already have a drastic improvement in pictures. We didn't do much on Friday since Nick arrived around lunch time. But we managed to get into the city and let the boys do some pigeon chasing in Plaza de Catalunya before having an ice cream.

On Saturday, Nick and I were able to tour Basílica de la Sagrada Família while Rick and Rose took the boys down to the harbor. Unfortunately, Nick's camera memory card malfunctioned at the beginning of our visit so we only have a few high quality pictures before we had to revert to the iPod camera again. The visit was well worth the 23 Euros and hey, we're contributing to the building of the church!

Barcelona: Day 3

Rick took the day off from work so we had a fun day exploring the city. We walked through some of the small alleys of Barri Gotic and made our way down to the seaside to have lunch. We got to play on the beach for a little while and then headed over to one of the marinas to see the sailboat that Rick sailed across the Atlantic on. In all, a beautiful day and the boys fell asleep on the bus ride back to the apartment.
Nick arrives on Friday so expect better pictures soon!

Barcelona: Day 2

We didn't do much today but here are some pics anyway.

"Hiding" in the apartment

"Cheese!"

They are shouting "Supermom!" because I'd just been saving them from sharks

It's hard to see here but there is a small heron in this tiny little pond. He seems to be a regular.

Busy Boy

Isaac spent the morning doing puzzles...

and then he had to take a break to do some grocery shopping.

He actually loaded and unloaded all of the groceries from the cart and put the cart away without me asking. What a helpful guy!

Dog Days of Summer

Forgive me, Isaac, but I couldn't resist taking your picture while you napped. What a pose!
