Time for Spain

We just got back from our Spain trip. We left for the Airport around 0230 and met up with Amber and Brett. Got some coffee and breakfast and while heading to meet up with Christi and Craig... spilled coffee all over her pants and white hoody. Good thing we had a trunk full of clothes and she changed in the BMW parking lot. I hope they dont have any video cameras outside. We met with the Smiths and we all headed towards the airport.

Spain is a very nice country at least the towns we saw. Getting early to the apartments we dropped off our luggage at the receptionist and headed out to catch a bus to Tarragona. After asking a hand full of bus drivers if this was the bus to Tarragona, the right one finally said yes. The town was my favorite. It had that old Spain by the beach feeling. We saw some great scenery and I took a lot of pics. The drinks and ice cream was wonderful and after soaking in some warm sunlight we headed back to check into our apartment. I thought it was nice for the amount us three couples had to pay. Had a kitchen, living room, 2 bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms. On the roof porch, we could see Salou's Beach which we would spent all day tomorrow at.

Salou was very nice also. The weather was great. The mixture of the hot sun and  the cold wind made it perfect. We spent the day shopping and laying on the beach. Even though the water was pretty cold, the girls loved playing in the water, sand, and searching for sea shells. Even Jacob loved the beach time. After walking a bit around the town we waked back up the mountain to relax in our apartment.

The next morning we left for the bus ride to Barcelona. The bus trip was the longest but gave us some sleeping time. We arrived in the center of the town and took the the hop on and hop off tours. The beginning of the day was a bit gloomy and it even rained. But this didnt stop us! towards the afternoon we saw some great sites and even tried a Spanish rice dish for dinner.

Over all the trip was a success, we had a lot of fun with our friends, and I got a sun burn....lol.
