Hello there, blog readers. It's been a while since the last update. As many of you probably know (mainly because we got to see you), we were on a 3-week vacation. We began in Barcelona, which was absolutely amazing. I can't tell you how many people recommended this city as a vacation spot before we made the move to Copenhagen. So, it was certainly one we wanted for the books!
We hit most of the main tourist sites, which, despite being extremely touristy, are breathtaking. From the monstrosity that's the Sagrada Familia church to the brave hike (without gear!) we did to the top of the Montserrat mountains, there is no shortage of amazing things to see and do in Barcelona. Most of all, I was intrigued by the architecture. We hit the beaches for some sun one day, enjoyed amazing sangria, and indulged in tapas and paella! We certainly would recommend a Barcelona visit to anyone visiting or traveling through Europe. If it weren't for the many other cities we'd like to explore while living in Europe, we'd head back to Barcelona in a second!
Following Barcelona, we flew into Pittsburgh to see my family. It was a very nice and relaxing time. My parents hosted a picnic at a local park and lots of family and friends came to that. After Pittsburgh, we headed to Philly. Despite a major heat wave (it may have passed 100 degrees), we had a great time catching up with our good friends. Then, it was on to Ocean City (MD) to spend a week on the beach with Jason's family. It was great seeing them, as we hadn't seen them since we moved back in January. Before we knew it, the 3 weeks were over. I couldn't believe how fast the trip went.
Since we took the "good camera" with us, there is no shortage of pictures for you this time around. So, I'd like to re-direct you to another location for this blog entry so that you can see all of the great things we did in both Spain and America. Please note that I didn't go into lengthy descriptions with everything because there were so many shots. There are captions that tell you where the picture was taken, but I didn't make a huge effort to go into detail. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Please enjoy and, as always, come back here to leave your comments, questions...whatever!

Wow, loads of great pictures! Some we saw, but nice seeing them again. Even all the doggies made it to the blog! I still thine the Pee Wee Herman places are neat, but, what a terrific array of photos, and so will the memories be there too. Great travel spot for you, and many more to come.
