Spain...Heidi on her own!

Tyler stayed back for work and watched Lu along with my lovely neighbor Micci, while I went to Barcelona Spain to visit my old friend from college Charlie! We have a great time together!!! Charlie works for the W Hotel in San Fransisco and got us a room in Spain that was DIIIIIVINE!!! We saw a large Picasso exhibit, has some yummy tapa's, did the touristy Hop on Hop off bus tour and reminisced! At one of the tour bus stops we saw the Sagrada La Familia. A church that has been being built for the last hundred years all by private donations and is not to be done for another twenty years. What was done was amazing, the architect who is deceased now took all his inspiration from nature. the whole church was filled with organic shapes. Cones with berries, branches with doves, staircases in the circular shape of a shells, it was amazing. Thanks to Tyler for footing the bill on my trip while staying to watch the Moon. Thanks to Charlie for a great time and thanks to Lu for being good for our neighbor while I was gone! Success!!!!!

Spring Lunch in our Garden

Lucy and I made some butternut squash soup, sauteed up some purple cabbage and had our lunch in the cold but sunny garden attached to our flat. Notice the clothes on the line in the background, no dryers in these European Flats!

Grease!

Lucy got her face painted after the show. Here we are outside Grease in the theater District of Liecester Square London. We bought her the movie Grease and with a little hesitation let her watch it...we have see it fifty million times now!!!!

We went to Grease!

Lucy and Tyler saw their first big theater performance. We saw Grease and Lucy totally loved it!
