Our frequent flyer ticket brought us through Barcelona first, for a few days of sightseeing and tapas eating - joined by Uncle David and soon-to-be Aunt Stacey.
Highlights included Gaudi viewing, museum visits that ranged from The History of Chocolate (samples included) to Picasso, and a cooking class which included a visit to a local market.
This left us jet-lag adjusted, well fed, and prepared for heading back to Italy!
