I have to start posting about my European cruise I went on 3 weeks ago, but it's just taking a while with work and whatnot. So bear with me... slowly but surely, they will be up here!
Amy, Caitlin Putre, Lauren Schuetz, and I all met up in Barcelona for a day and a half before we got on our European Cruise! I was even more excited to have Nikki Pritchard and Lauren Decker (2 more Navy Nurses) meet up with us there for the weekend. I haven't seen Nikki in over a year when she was passing through Kuwait on her way home.

Even though I arrived pretty late, it was perfect timing for Barcelona time to go out to dinner. We ate at a pretty good Italian place and the spent the rest of the night drinking sangria while listening to live music. We spent the whole next day sightseeing! Of course we did all the sights... Park Guell, Sagrada Familia, Las Ramblas, and Pueblo Espanol. I loved all of Gaudi's artwork all over the city. Park Guell was amazing with all his intricate mosaic artwork. Sagrada Familia is a famous cathedral designed by Gaudi but still under construction for over 100 years! After seeing it, I can see why it's taking so long to complete with all it's details. We went to the fresh market on Las Ramblas for lunch. That was probably one of my favorite parts of Barcelona with all the fresh fruit and veggies and organic dishes! The rest of the afternoon we spent walking around the shopping district.

Organic tapas at the market... I had the cuscous stuffed bell pepper! |
