Internet ability has been spotty. Also, we've been looking for a place that will allow us to upload pictures for a few days now but haven't found one yet.

A few quick highlights from the past few days:

  • Checked out Gaudi's many crazy & stunning architecture projects in Barcelona. Most creative architecture I've ever seen, and it's all about a hundred years old.
  • Visited the Prado museum & assorted sights in Madrids
  • Explored the well-preserved medieval town of Toledo
  • Saw the Mezquita in Cordoba
  • Saw flamenco in Seville, as well as an unexpected town-wide religious parade
  • Was overwhelmed by the overwhelming and incredible Alhambra in Granada; why isn't this place more widely known? Easily one of the best sites in Europe.
  • It was 41 degrees Celcius (106 Fahrenheight) yesterday. Humid, too. Yet, all the local men wear pants instead of shorts. How do they do it? Special Spanish super powers?

Ha! That's funny Brian! Who has ever heard of a Spanish Superhero??

(No. Really! Who? I can't think of any off of the top of my head!)

Don Juan maybe?

Or Don Quixote?

Zorro?

Zorro definitely works. And he was even wearing black in the heat. That would take crazy super powers.
