Marty and Rick
Sooo I've been super slacking lately. Sorry, it's not my fault my parents are just slave drivers.. Anywayyy on April 26 my parents arrived! And that was the day I turned 21, so you can only imagine how thrilled I was to get them at the airport at 8 am that day. NOT. But I was so excited to see them obviously (Even if I only had 3 hours of sleep)! We spent the next 4 days in Barcelona, seeing all the tourist spots. We went to Da Greco for my birthday dinner and it was probably the best meal I've ever had. We ate and drank our way through Barcelona that's for sure!
Wednesday we took the train to Madrid. Thursday and Friday were holidays so it kind of hindered our sightseeing, but we took a bus tour, saw the Royal Palace and of course the Prado museum. I even snuck a pic of Las Meninas!
We also met up with Mom's friend who was a foreign exchange student when they were in high school! We also had amazing pintxos one night, I ate froie gras which is duck liver...it was incredible! We also went to a Flamenco show our last night and it was so amazing. It was definitely the best way to spend my last night in Spain.
Yesterday we landed in London and I am absolutely in love with it. It's so refreshing to watch English tv too by the way. We saw the London Tower and the changing of the guard today and the Royal Mews. I love it here for sure. We then go to Paris on Wednesday!
Sorry this post is kinda unorganized, I'm just kinda lazy and watching Bride Wars so I'm not fully in the blogging game. But don't worry I'll keep you posted!
Cheers
Ellen
