I love Europe for too many reasons to list. It is my thought that every American should have to spend at least 2 weeks in Europe in their lifetime. I think that would help a lot of the stupid ones. I also think that everyone should have to wait tables and bartend for at least 2 weeks in their lifetime. Same reason. Help the stupid ones.

I can't even describe fully what an amazing time we are having. This. Is. Living. And it's absolutely thrilling to have fallen more deeply in love with Peter. He rules.

I way overdid it yesterday with all of my Gaudi excitement and am tired and achy but it was worth it. To witness Peter's astonishment at Sagrada Familia was exhilarating. I kept trying to pretend I'd never seen it before. In many ways, I had not, as seeing something with Peter is different every time you see it because of the things he notices. And of course, Parc Guell never ever disappoints. I closed my eyes and thought of you, KBDK. 

Peter keeps taking random pictures of fancy Euro scooters for AXM.

I am glad I packed lots of leggings as my waist is expanding daily. However, I recoil at stuff like "Exquisite fatty and meaty Iberian hog meat". Oh yes. And those of you who know Peter, know that he ordered it. (It ended up not coming. A fact he did not notice until after we had left the restaurant, thank god.)
