I miss the sun

Last week's weather: rain and clouds

This week's weather: more rain, more clouds, and maybe some snow tomorrow

This is the only city I've lived in where the weather report makes a distinction between "white cloud" and "grey cloud." Makes me so glad that I got to see the sun when Ali surprised me with a trip to Barcelona for my birthday earlier this month! We spent the weekend walking around the city, touring some of the famous sights, discovering loads of tiny art galleries and cool shops on small side streets, and having incredible food.

The beach:


Tapas as El Quim in La Boqueria, the huge market:


Typical Catalan breakfast:


Of course, how could I forget the woman walking her pet rabbit around the Sagrada Familia?
