Fish and Boats

Today we visited the Barcelona aquarium. It was not very big, but we certainly did have fun. We then walked around looking for a Subway for lunch. I knew I had seen one, but I did not remember where. We ended up at Burger King, which was an OK substitute for all of us, except Sarah (she won't eat Burger King). On our way back to the waterfront, we found, guess what...the Subway! We stopped in for Sarah to have a sandwich. We then kept walking down to the water and took a nice sight seeing boat ride. It was fun until it started to rain. Odd thing about this summer, wherever we have been, it has rained. I kind of expected it in Holland, but not in Texas, Chicago, or Rhode Island. We have had rain in each spot. Sarah stood on the front of the boat and let herself really get wet. She loves the rain and is something she really misses in Dubai. We went back to our apartment for a few hours and then walked to a nearby Italian restaurant for dinner.

It has just been one of the laziest vacations we've ever had. We are really enjoying the slow mornings and having time to lay around and talk and dream together (and surf the internet and make some postings on Facebook). Tomorrow will be another beach day. We (Jim) have mastered the metro, so we'll take the ride to the beach, rent a few chairs and umbrellas and hope for sunshine all day long. We only have two days left of our vacation and then real life begins again.
