Xispa

Pipo keeps offering to walk Xispa but we're not sure he's ready for the responsibility. 

Mustering up the courage to go make a new friend.

Flying

Riu Ter

Running through Girona is the Riu Ter.  We happened to be there on a rather stormy day to catch these images.

After the Rains

Piles of trash and a general haze 

Admittedly, this may be the ugliest set of pictures I will post (intentionally).  We recently had a week of strong storms in Barcelona that swept away much of the sand at the Barcelona beach.  That wasn't the only problem, though.  We got a glimpse at just how polluted our water is here.  It was disgusting.  I feel like mother nature was trying to purge the ocean of all the garbage we dump into it.  The adjuntamiento has their work cut out for them.

Most of the time, this is a large paved sidewalk.

The water is choppy and murky, but this guy has the right idea. 

Piles of garbage everywhere, I should have turned this into an 'I-Spy' picture.

Sagrat Cor

The church of Sagrat Cor sits at the top of the Mt. Tibidabo.  The views of the city are absolutely amazing.
