Paris was amazing, and when I get the feeling like I want to blog about that, I will.
Right now the only thing I can think about is Barcelona. Today while I was in freaking Mediterranean ocean, doing some backstrokes, looking around Sitges, I couldn't help but wonder when I'd ever see it again. I know I should be happy that I even had the opportunity to even see it, but I want more and I don't care how selfish that sounds. The weather was perfect, and why is the sand & ocean here so nice?! Anyway, I'll talk about my day.
Kathryn & I get up bright and early to catch the 10:29 train to Sitges, a city about 45 minutes south of Barcelona. The beach is better and, fortunately, the tourists haven't quite caught on to that. We walked for a while, but finally stopped at a quiet little spot on the shore with a nice view of the ocean & Hotel Terramar (which looked a lot better in its original form). The water was beautiful and we laid out for a few hours before heading to lunch, which was huge. Patatas bravas, pan con tomate y jamón, spaghetti, and bacalao - so much food, but so delicious complete with Estrellas and sandías.
After lunch, we plopped down on another spot on the shore and took advantage of the ocean. We also took advantage of the fact that going topless is the way to go in Europe. The lack of tan lines on my chest will soon be obsolete once I go back to the Atlantic. Anyways, we headed home after a perfect beach day and now I'm here in my room wondering how I'm going to fit anything into my suitcases.
Oh yeah, the sky looked really ugly one night so I took a picture of it from my balcony.
