Don't make fun of my Castellaño . . .

Knowing the language in a foreign country? Awesome. Getting called out by an old man in a park because you are from Argentina? Not so awesome:) We made a few friends by hanging out in the park, because everyone hangs out in the park but anytime those friends were wise aged gentlemen, they made life interesting. One told my mom he would marry her and the other couldn't believe she dared have an accent, come from Argentina, then move to the U.S - - - to each his own though, right, to each his own . . .

Plaza Catalunia! (by the by . . . travel tip - bring a large scarf, one hour earlier, it was our beach towel)

Peterson Utah needs a fountain like this - can someone get on that?

Also, build a statue like this one and bring over the moon . . .

Architecture is king in Barcelona -

Give me a few months and I will turn my parents log cabin into this . . .What? I can do it, I was born to be a sculptor!

Next time you are in Barcelona, stop by the Argentine Embassy - we did:)

Then don't forget to walk down Las Ramblas, all the cool kids are doing it . . .

Pick out some flowers at the fresh market -

Or pose in front of them! Mom was in heaven, if she picks up leaves and rocks from everyplace we go, imagine how I had to hold her back from breaking off a few stems, madness I tell ya!

Now here is where it gets interesting . . .

La Bouqueria . . . best farmer's market in - the - world!

Want a fig? That lady will get one for you?

A piece of chocolate, some nuts - don't worry, they have those too

Cool fruit that looks like Medusa hair? Check.

Ever wondered what a gummy egg tastes like? Heaven - mixed with a little of "Holy Crap, that is a lot of candy!"

From now on . . . I only get fruit smoothies if I can have one of each -

- or if I can share with my mom because we were poor from all the loot we just bought Gabby -just sayin' . . .

But may I warn you, the mixture of seafood,

eggs (do eggs smell?),

and nuts, is a doozy! Not for the weak of heart. Buck up Sailor!
