Back from Barcelona


Hi everyone. I'm back from Barcelona. I touched down at JFK last night. My sleeping patterns are at the moment all effed up. It is currently 5:30 am in New York and I have been awake since 3am.
I did manage to fall back asleep for an hour but then I got an email alert that a pair of shoes from Zara that I want were once again available in my size...so of course I had to wake up for that.
I have tried to condense as many photos as I could. I took so many. Barcelona is breathtaking surrounded by mountains and the sea. I ate great paella, shopped like a freaking maniac and listened to numerous 80's hits. Ohhh...yes...it seems Spain is stuck on 80's American music but it was awesome.
The first few days were just a lot of beach and sight seeing at Sangrada Familia and Parc Guell.
 Hope this wasn't photo overload for you. I have sooooo many amazing photos and it was hard to narrow it down. I would say the highlight of the first few days was visiting Parc Guell. It's situated high in the hills of Barcelona and it overlooks the entire city. It was really something I will never forget. Do the cave photos look familiar to anyone???? If you watched
 America's Next Top Model one of the fashion shows the girls did took place there a few seasons ago!

stay tuned for more photos and video soon.
