Barcelona, Spain

Hola! From Barcelona!
It has been an amazing trip thus far and I'm just excited for every day to come. I had a little trouble at the beginning of the trip finding friends due to the fact that 98% of the population on the ship traveling just to get wasted and fraterinize with each other. It was a first rough few days, but than we started a bible study on the ship and I had the chance to meet some people with the same values. This was relieving except for the fact there still were no guys on the ship that I could relate to. I've been hanging out with three girls named Mollie, Kiley, and Emily. They all are great and love the Lord, but it is still kind of rough not having a guy by your side to make fun of the girls. Traveling in Barcelona has been amazing! I have got to see many of Gaudi's architectural works throughout the city including La Sagrada Familia, which was unbelieveable. He has definately become one of my favorite architects after learning about his work. Gaudi didn't believe in straight lines because God created no straight lines in his creation. Through this outlook on the world Gaudi created his own form of architecture leaving his genius behind for all to ooouu and Awe over. I also got to see the Picasso museum which was definately a trip. We have travled throughout Barcelona and have enjoyed the cafes and bars. I'd have to say the best part of Barcelona so far though has been seeing my friend kiley get water dumped on her from above the balcony after I had just walked by right in front of her. Definately set up a quite enjoyable and memorable moment as she just stood there and embraced it. We also got to watch the Spain vs. Chile game in a Restarante, which turned out to be pretty cool as Spain won the game. Tonight we are going to a Flamenco show, watching the Fountain lights, and going Salsa Dancing. It should be a pretty fun evening, but I must admit that I am pretty exhausted from all the walking around. Tomorrow is our last day here in Spain and not sure exactly what we have planned but Im excited for another day here. O, and Chocolate con Churros! Awesome! Gracias Joshua for making sure that I knew to get it. Well, more to come as I travel to Italia in the next two days. One day at a time.
