Now back to our beautiful first day with the kids in Barcelona, where we were? Oh yes, the kids were troopers, ready to head out and explore with us. We decided to catch the "hop on/hop off" double decker bus. We didn't stay on very long as it was a bit past lunch time and we were all pretty hungry. So we hopped off and did a little touring and then decided it was time for lunch. Luckily we quickly found a great pub.It was a tapas pub/restaurant of course and we feasted on salami, hams, and all different kinds of tapas and really tasty beer. Here is where I should show pics of the yummy tapas and us devouring the food and beer but again, this was one of those times that we just had to put the camera down and enjoy.

Check out a few pics of the Casa Batllo. Don't ask me about it because even after the recorded "phone tours" we got to listen to, basically all I got out of it was that this guy was an amazing architect with incredible talent and he designed some of the most fantastic buildings such as the Casa Batllo and the Sagrada Familia church.

Awwwww, aren't they just the cutest couple?
Ok, so at this point we are alllllllllllmost done with Barcelona.
Tomorrow I'll begin writing about Christmas on a cruise! How was it? Was it weird? Was it sad to be on a boat and not in a home? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! We had a great time:)
