Spain is incrediblly warm, friendly and fun! I recall being on a motocycle tourning around Gaudi's art especially the unfinished Sagrada Familia ! Magical city... love the Catalonians!

Yes, I am trying to crank out the first chapter, but I am having a difficult time with it! Chapter 2 and 3 are done with slight revisions, but I think working backwards has its disadvantages! I LOVE YOUR POST! I have never been to Spain, but my father's folks were from the northern part. My people are a wild lot, that is for sure!!! The one that cracks me up is the running with the bulls thing; WHO THOUGHT OF THAT! And the tomato throwing event every summer and the human tower that they do. My immediate family is no exception. Crazy, wild party animals, indeed! :) I always say its the chili we eat....Have a fun summer, what's left of it!

They also tend to go out verrrrry late in the evening so it's no wonder they need those siestas!Kirsten Steenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07497761140112542336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7185402108364032997.post-78098618792573042972009-07-17T19:07:03.956-07:002009-07-17T19:07:03.956-07:00Or it could be all the tapas and sangria and loung...Or it could be all the tapas and sangria and lounging around in one of the city's many parks on a sunny afternoon. The culture of siesta is not one of going home and lying in bed with the fan running but rather one of meeting up with friends and relaxing in the grass together chatting away. <br /><br />I've been to Barcelona and it was a wonderful city to explore though it does make you jealous as everyone seems to be enjoying themselves far too much and the relaxed easy going lifestyle looks very appealing.Elkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742903389296438624noreply@blogger.com
