Emily Brittney Barcelona

we finally made it! this morning we flew from san antonio to houston, then from houston to london, then from london to barcelona. it's about 9am texas time (3pm barcelona time) and we've been up for 24 hrs with a 2 hr nap on the plane. the two of us are exhausted and really really want to sleep but we're gonna stay up so we can get on a regular schedule. for the next three nights we'll be staying at centric point hostel in barcelona. it's safe and clean, we have our own beds, sheets, lockers, room keys and lobby access. they have free breakfast, free internet, free wifi and our room windows and lobby windows look over the beautiful de gracia street. there are motorbikes everywhere (like yours dad) and it's fun strolling along the streets looking at the buildings. At the airport we found our way to the baggage claim and metro station, got our metro tickets and even got off at the right stop! we kinda look like turtles with our backpacks but it's been very convenient to have the day pack clip on the front of my bag. Our flight from houston to london was wonderful with movies, tv shows, and music on demand, and the plane was only maybe half full so em and i both got to sprawl accross 2 rows of seats so we could sleep a little bit. we got dinner and breakfast, then breakfast again on the flight to barcelona, and we're trying to stay hydrated with enough water. It's so exciting to finally be here and tomorrow after a good night of sleep i'm sure we will have more enthusiasm for activities. anyone interested in reading emily's blog as well...here is the url www.emilyharmseurope.blogspot.com
