barcelona.

if i had to describe barcelona in three words, it would be: tapas. tapas. tapas. i may have eaten way too many tapas. our weekend getaway basically consisted of food, beach, and palm trees. here are a few of my favorite photos from our trip:

finally found an elephant at the barcelona zoo.
 twin was looking for monkeys or something.
 then twin and felicia had a moment with the barcelona sunset.
 sunrise.
 palms. contrary to popular belief, palm trees are not native to barcelona. they were brought in for the 1992 olympics, some donated by the bacard family (makers of bacardi). along with the palms came an unbelievable airport, and egyptian sand that is imported each year.
 this is called a space invader. an unknown tag artist secretly plants them in strategic places around the world. neat, right?
 and this...is an original banksy. the first one my eyes have ever seen. i screamed. 
 enjoying some wonderful graffiti?
felicia and me on the night that never ended :)




p.s. school has been so busy this week. but spring break starts next thursday, and along with break comes travel! too excited to say. 


ciao!
