| TJ's iCrack helped us survive 12+ hours of air travel. |
 |
| The Toronto airport's international terminal has a sweet echo chamber. |
 |
| TJ was compelled to climb into every one of these Toronto airport newspaper stations. |
 |
| We sure were happy to be in Barcelona! |
 |
| Tree telling tales of Barca as we walk past what will be a bustling active business area at some other point in the day. Don't ask us what the business are nor when they open. You just need to come back later and see what pops up. |

| A semi-creepy old guy had a collection of dolls and a handful of bunnies. We heard about these bunnies from TJ for the next several days. In case you're wondering, he did pet the bunnies. He'll tell you again if you need confirmation. |
 |
| Flynns & BK at the best park in Barcelona. |
 |
| What park could be complete without a mammoth statue? |
 |
| TJ shares his camera smile. |
 |
| The key to a good time in Barca is to walk around the various neighborhood squares until you find an all-day all-night folk dancing festival. Success!!! |
 |
| The only place to be on Sunday is the beach. |
 |
| Our epic walk around town on Monday included several stops at the plentiful playgrounds. |
 |
| Most people would share a few dozen pictures of GaudÃ's La Sagrada FamÃlia, but since this blog is all about TJ, you get this. (Use the Google machine if pictures of buildings are your kind of thing.) |

| Jamon sammich time. |
 |
| This former bullfighting arena recently re-opened as a high-end mall... |
 |
| ...with a kick-arse view of Placa d'Espanya (plaza), Torres Venecianes (towers) and Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (palace in the far background). The 360 degree views available from the top of the arena were only slightly less popular with TJ than the all-glass elevator at the center of the mall (not pictured). |
 |
| Park Guell is a short, steep hike straight up from BK & Tree's place. We went here for sunsets and amazing views our last two nights in Barca. We could spend heaps more time in this park... if only we had more time. |
 |
| TJ goofing around at sunset amid beautiful views. |
 |
| Hells-yeah! |
 |
| Bye-bye Barca... France, here we come! |
Oh man, big grin on my face when looking through your pics. You got some great ones! One of my favorites is the last one where you two have your packs loaded up at the Fontana metro station... since I saw what went in to those packs (baby jail!), I got to appreciate how hard core you both are. What troopers! xo, Tree
ReplyDeleteI just posted heaps of other pictures from our time in Barca to my facebook. I'll do the same (TJ-centric pictures here and a larger selection on facebook) for the next two installments: Gaujac and Paris.
