Viva Barcelona

Well all, it seems like just a few days ago that we returned from Spain and now we're off to Paris, Florence, and Rome for Spring Break. Oh wait...that's exactly the case. 

Last weekend was spent in Barcelona. We think we are safe in saying that it is different from anything we've ever done before. We enjoyed a legit bike tour with lunch on the beach and warmth. That's right...WARMTH. Emily wore shorts one day. It was revolutionary. The bike tour took us around to all the historical places in Barcelona that we had no idea even existed. The guide was from Texas so it was nice to actually have someone understand what we were saying. Let's just say high school Spanish did not fully equip us for this adventure. This is a picture of us on our bikes with our new friend Amy Jo. Siggies is just inescapable, but we're not complaining.

This week was full of lots of homework, papers, projects, presentations, papers, etc. They meant it when they said STUDY Abroad.

And now we're about to leave for Paris. Literally, just a few hours from now. We're going with a small group: the two of us, and our partners in crime, Jen and Bailey. We cannot even tell you how excited we are about a whole week of relaxation and no homework. We're pretty confident it will be even better than Barcelona!

That's all for now. It could be more, but there is packing to be done. Don't worry though, we're storing up tons of stories to tell you all when we get back. :)

XOXO....oh wait? No Gossip Girl in England. Bailey has withdrawals.
