The Mighty Mediterranean

Eric and I finally saw the Mediterranean Sea yesterday and it was absolutely amazing! If I had jumped in (which I of course didn't) and kept swimming like a crazy person I would have run into Africa. Mind boggling.

We are settling in to our apartment on the Gran Via, a major thoroughfare in Barcelona, and adjusting to all the new ways of doing things, i.e. lighting the stove, taking a hot shower, mailing a letter...

For those who'd like to send us some international posts, our new address is:

Gran Via de los Corts Catalanes
487 Principal 2
08015 Barcelona
Spain

We hope you are all happy and healthy and staying warm.

Love always,
patty & eric

Moving for Spain

What great exercise!! Who needs a step class. Patty and Eric are on their adventure and we were happy to help them on their way.

Hola from Barcelona

Well, family, we made it to Barcelona, Spain. After 3 plane rides, 1 hotel, 1 hostel and an apartment, along with many subway rides, bus rides and a lot of walking, we are almost settled. For those of you wanting to call, we did get a cell phone for the next 6 months. We would suggest a calling card though - we'd love to hear from you!

To call us, dial:
011+34+93+645 257 609

p.s. the time difference is 7 hours for those in Minnesota and 8 for those of you in Utah

We don't yet have a permanent address, but we'll let you know as soon as we do.

It's been a wild ride so far, but we are loving it. We are checking our email daily, and we'd love to hear from you. We love and miss you all! Here's just a little peak at what we've seen/where we've slept:
