Home Sweet Home

After about 22 hours of travel back to Phoenix--Last night we slept in our own bed. But like any memorable journey--it couldn't have been that simple. We did not bring any keys with us and had hoped that our friend Jeff had left the key in our garage that we left for him--But when we got home--No Key--Jeff and Audrey live around the block--but it was midnight and they have a little baby--but 22 hours of travel--we wanted to go home--so we rang their doorbell--they either didn't answer or maybe were out of town. We (and when I say we--I mean us and Eric & Laura as they were our taxi home) had to drive back to Chandler to pick up a spare key from Kfir--But then finally we were home. We actually managed to go to sleep, but then woke up wide awake at 7:30am. So today we are doing laundry, sorting through mail, and discovering just how bad the US Dollar is against the Euro--Thank You American Express for your detailed website!

In regards to our trip--We'll post all our pictures soon---Barcelona was awesome and a great way to end our Vacation. We can't even imagine going back to work now--but according the the AMEX bill--we have to.

View of Las Ramblas from our hotel room.

Our first day in Barcelona--we headed to the beach.

After the beach we headed to our first tapas bar--Cal Pep. We had a major language barrier at times, so I decided I would starve or eat what they served me--Here I am trying clams for the first time--If you dip anything in enough butter it tastes good.

Our last night eating Paella at the Port.
