Spanien!

The German word Spanien (aka Spain) looks like the German word spannend, which means thrilling, which is just what Spain was. My friend Sarah and I - perfect travel buddies, eager to see everything a city has to offer and like the same foods.- took a long weekend trip to Spain over the past week. A little getaway. A little girl time. A whole lot of mediterranean.

It was such a great weekend. We saw La Sagrada Familia - a cathedral that has been continuously built (architect - Gaudi) since the late 1800s and expected to be finally done in 2020. We went to Parc Guell - another Gaudi creation that was originally going to be a housing development for the affluent but turned into a public park after the project bottomed up. We laid topless on the beach (okay obvi, that is joke, but everyone else did!). We experienced Barcelona winning the first game of the Champion League finals. We drank Sangria (to die for) out of liter glasses. We had girl talk. We ate everywhere and everything and stuffed ourselves with yummy Tapas.

You can put me on a plane and literally fly me anywhere in this world. God you have such an artistic hand.
