For those of you who don't know much about Barcelona or geography, Barcelona is basically surrounded by mountains on 3 sides and the Mediterranean on the 4th. This is why Barcelona grows up instead of out.
Anyway, we went to this mountain - which is like a 20 minute drive from our house - and amazingly, were some of the first to arrive. It did eventually get a bit chilly, but when we first arrived, it was beautiful out and I even took my sweater off because the sun was so delightfully warming. There were happy puppies everywhere throughout this park/picnic area and I even got to play with a few. We had a big meal and then Yago and I laid in the grass for a bit where I collected snail shells...there were billions!
This particular area is pretty popular for family gatherings such as ours, so there's usually a good amount of people, there are lots of bikers and hikers passing through, and there are nice wooden paths throughout. Because of all that, I was slightly confused - though I was not the only one - when a random shepherd walked right through the picnic area with his herd of goats and 2 sheepdogs as if it were the most normal thing in the world. I thought it was awesome and it made my day.
(The second photo is just a bonus. It's another one of Yagos' cousins' kids, Marc. He's my fave ever. I mean just look at that face!)
