Barcelona - Week One


Casa Milla
Hello friends and familia - we are now safe and sound in beautiful Barcelona. It is not quite hot here...yet (it has been in the 50s all week) so we still need our coats and gloves. But it is also very sunny. So, we have winter coats and sunglasses on most days. Travis has been adjusting very well to our new apartment and new city and his new tutor/travel nanny Julie. Here are some photos from one of our first outings, to Gaudi's Casa Milla. 
Casa Milla Roof

As you can see, it is quite beautiful and has the most wonderful many leveled roof with sculptures all about. Each fixture actually serves a critical role in the building - as exhaust for air, or fireplaces, or some other ventilation need. Incredible!




Our visit here was Travis's first request and it did not fail to delight and impress us all. Check out Travis's blog next week for a report on Gaudi and the Case Milla. His blog is at www.travisworldofwow.blogspot.com but he told me to tell you he will be updating it next week as he is "still doing research." Ciao! H, D, & T
