Morning market in Parafrugell and meeting Anna

 We were so lucky to find out about this market from a local waitress the night before . What a treat, fabulous tasting fresh fruits, nuts, breads and veggies.



 Great place for our vegetarians, Alexander and Angelica were in seventh heaven. Angelica's Spanish came in very handy even though the locals spoke Catalan.  Rebeca and Alexander with 2 years of Spanish behind them also did quite well.

Finally, Anna and EJ !!!!


It was unbelievable how comfortable Anna was right away with her very loud and excited cousins! This just might be because she is used to a very loud and excited father and uncles! Below we went on a lovely stroll to the sea which was at the bottom of our steep garden. EJ holding on tight of course !!







This was our stunning view to the Med and the nice hike back up to the house !
Nothing like ending a the day with a card game on the stairs! Cousins rock!  Still trying to figure out my spell check problems from the previous post . Love you all

Switzerland and Spain

                                              
Finally we were off on our long awaited trip to Spain!!!!
 We were lucky enough to have a
five hour lay over in Geneva so we found our way
to the lake for a stunning breakfast.



We enjoyed cappuccinos, caffeine and pan chocolat with plenty of sun shine!       



Welcome Tamariu, Spain! This is the view one house from ours....yikes!
Cliff jumping plans in progress.........

Ahh.....Jet Lag!
