The magic of Barcelona

Well, here is the second part of my trip to Europe, this time is about the magic of Barcelona. We only stayed there for 3 days, the first time for my son and the second time for me. Barcelona is until today, my favorite city in Spain, es eclectic, historic, natural, artistic and full of wonderful things to see and eat.

You will eat very well in Barcelona, from tapas and bocaditos, to paellas and delicious deserts. We went to La Colmena, Cervecería Catalana, El Quim de la Boquería, and others. A trip to mercado de La Boqueria is mandatory, is an espectacular place to experience the culinary world of Barcelona. When you think you can’t eat anything else, you will find something unique that you can’t refuse.

Full of Architectonic details, Barcelona never cease to amaze , specially visiting Gaudí’s wanders.

We also went to an amazing orchestra concert in Santa Maria del Mar Basilica. I have to say, I cried, yes, a lot, it was a mixture of acoustics, excellent classical music and the fact that I was there, sharing this moment with my son. Again, the magic of Barcelona.

Last, but not least, let me tell you about Park Güell. It was my second time here, and this time I really took the time to enjoy it to the fullest. It is filled with flowers and herbs in a special garden. It is more than just a park, is a true treasure in the middle of the city. We walked, we talked and we dreamed about the future.

I love Barcelona, and I will visit her again for sure!!!! Would you visit Barcelona too?

Thanks for reading!!!

De paseo por Savannah Georgia

Esta navidad decidimos irnos de viaje en auto hacia Carolina de el sur.  Savannah y Charleston fueron nuestro destino, a solo 5 horas de donde vivimos en Winter Park.  La historia de estos dos lugares es interesante, diversa y llena de misterios a la vez.  En Savannah solo fuimos de pasada, llegamos en la tarde y en la mañana nos fuimos, pero las pocas horas que estuvimos fueron suficiente para disfrutar de un ben rato.

Además de una arquitectura hermosa, se come de maravilla, al menos 10 libras tuve que haber aumentado.  Así que si vienen a Florida, un viaje a Savannah, no esta demás, y con buena compañía, mucho mejor!!!
