Things are getting extremely crazy around here as we get closer to moving day. I haven't been able to get myself to sit still in the computer chair long enough to make an interesting post about our trip to Spain, so I guess I'll just put some pictures up to tell the story...
We flew into Girona, Spain and after a loooong convoluted drive finally found our cute little apartment just outside town. Once we got settled we went back into town for a little exploring.
Ruby got her first chance to try a drinking fountain (believe it or not, they just DON'T exist in Denmark). She thought it was pretty fun and Bobo got a kick out of it too!
This photo was taken in the Museu del Cinema. It was really a very interesting museum of the history of movie making--starting with shadow plays. Definitely a must see for movie buffs or those technically minded. Ruby even enjoyed playing with the interactive exhibits.
Ruby didn't complain AS much about holding hands when she got to hold Bobo or Nana's hands instead of boring ol' Mommy and Daddy's hands.
If you look through the leaves, you'll see a form laying on the ground. Yes, that's Ruby. She decided to throw one (of many) tantrums here at the playground and refused to leave. We called her bluff and walked away. After a few minutes she skipped over to us like nothing had happened. That girl knows how to push my buttons.
I thought that this church was pretty. Notice the palm trees. It was actually warmer in September (high 80s, low 90s) than we have experienced in the last two years. It was GREAT!
This iron bridge is a famous landmark (of which I've forgotten the name...) in Girona and is smack dab in the middle of one of Europe's oldest Jewish Quarters. At the other end of the bridge is the Spanish version of Strøget, La Rambla, a pedestrian shopping street.
A final shot of the river running through town. It almost had a Venetian feel to it.
More to come!
