To celebrate my mother-in-law Margaret's Birthday and our 10th Wedding anniversary, The Doren family decided on a trip to Europe. It had been a dream of Phil and Margaret’s to see Ireland , so what better place to celebrate her Birthday. For good measure, we threw in 3 nights in Barcelona.
Dan found great apartments in the El Born district, that is in the old Gothic part of town (a hip place to live now). The location was very central and with an underground stop at the top of the street, getting around was pretty easy especially in this hot weather. Yes - it was about 80 degrees and humid in Barcelona in OCTOBER!!

There was a pastry shop right under our apartments and several Tapas bars nearby. We enjoyed the Tapas bars........... ordering olives, ham or cheese etc, drinking a glass of Cava while people watching. What a great time!
It had been 18 years since Dan was last there and it was my first visit to Barcelona. We read books and checked the internet and so had a good idea what we wanted to see during our quick visit.................. Gaudi and Dali.
Unfortunately we didn't make it to the Dali museum. Ah well, we'll have to save that for another trip.

It takes so long to upload those movies. I'll probably split the other photos of the vacation into two movies then.
Glad you liked them. Your comments make it all worthwhile.
