Reunion in Barcelona!

What an incredible city this is. We were quite exhausted from yesterday and the trip in general so we decided to take it easy today. We slept in pretty late and had our breakfast/lunch at a panadería (bread shop) that Pedro recommended to us! One thing that we have noticed is that Europeans make some amazing bakery food:) 

After that we took the metro to the beach and let me tell you, Barcelona beaches live up to the hype. The sand was soft, the beaches huge, and the water beautiful. We laid out and swam and such for over four hours and just relaxed and reflected on the trip. Partway into our beach day, our friends from Venice sent us a text that they were in Barcelona and came to the beach with us! 

We hung out with them for the rest of the night and had dinner at a tapas bar! What a great way to eat, tapas are small appetizers that you order for the whole table and share everything with everyone! 

After dinner Pedro our host called us and met up with us and brought our friend Katie who is nannying over here for the summer! All six of us then went to the beach and enjoyed the beautiful night just listening to the waves crashing and telling stories of our travels. 

Barcelona has not disappointed so far and tomorrow will bring a great day no doubt (4th of July!!!)
