Barcelona- our last stop in Europe before we head to NY!
What a super fast and super fun trip we all had exploring Europe and Africa. In Barcelona we found the most beautiful park, saw lots of street performers, ate yummy food, went to the chocolate museum, walked the most we walked all trip (which was a lot), went to street markets, food markets, the beach, and Dada got his hair/beard trimmed.
Im missing a lot of details from this trip because i am so behind on the blog (and life hahaha). Traveling for nearly 2 months will do that. Hopefully after i catch up, I’ll revisit these posts and put in the little details to remember. I’ll also look through all our video.
Next up, NY pics!
Figueres, Spain
Our next stop was a town called Figueres where we explored the Dali museum, and enjoyed all the smaller town feels. The weather was beautiful, dada met a cat he finally loved, there was live music, the kids made friends everywhere they went and the airbnb was beautiful. Fun, fun times.
Seville, Spain
We made it to Spain late in evening and rode the tiniest most narrow streets in an Uber to our Airbnb. The uber driver got lost/stuck a few times and it was def an adventure navigating through the roads of Seville.
Once we were settled in we had to find a restaurant b/c we were all starving. We ended up eating dinner at like 11:30pm i think and closing down a bar with the girls. It was def their first time shutting a bar down and it didnt disappoint. We all waddled home super late at night and not surprisingly the girls were ready for more.
Seville was an amazing city where we rented bikes, walked for days, ate more breakfast pastries, had the yummiest Moroccan food that we ate all trip, danced in rainy puddles, and wandered in and out of all little maze like streets.
From Lisbon to Faro by bus
We left Lisbon the day a hurricane hit it…talk about good timing! We took a pretty nauseating 4 hour bus ride to Faro where we settled in for a couple of days before heading off to Seville, Spain.
In Faro we just walked around, found a fun playground, watched trains pass from the side of the tracks, ate some good italian food and enjoy the peace from the big cities we were in before. Sabi also found her favorite ice cream sandwich finally!
Exploring Lisbon
Goodbye Porto, hello Lisbon
We left on a 2hr 40min train ride and headed over to Lisbon. All went smooth and train was super nice (except we got backwards facing seats which was a little sickening so will be searching for front facing tickets this time around).
We got to Lisbon in the afternoon and just explored the neighborhood where the girls made a little buddy from Scotland and played until the sun set. We were all a bit tired (basically momma and dada) and I finally caught the nasal thingy they all had so we decided to just order in (uber eats) and settle down for the night. We found an awesome indian takeout and Sabs ordered her favorite Indian food – french fries. Sissy ate some lentil soup, veggie samosas, and the peas out of all our dishes. Yumm-o.
Today we’ll be hitting the town for a full day of exploring. I love the neighborhood we’re in so im excited to see what all is around us. Tomorrow we head by train to a new town called Faro where we will just spend one night before heading to Spain :).
On to Lisbon:
Exploring Porto!
What a beautiful day in a beautiful city! We just walked and walked and bumped into the most fun things! We saw an invisible man, a woman statue, a man statue, a guy jump off the bridge into freezing cold water, a clock that had animated figures and played music over the street, a super fun walking street where we all tried roasted chestnuts for the first time, the best food we have had in weeks, and tons of gorgeous views! Ahhh, what an incredible first day in Portugal! We ended it with a dinner at home including a delicious salad for momma and dada and loads of broccoli soup for the lil rugrats. Sabi ate the most she has eaten in weeks…she def made up for her lost meals yesterday. The little rat downed waffles, bananas, strawberries, eggs, avocados, 3 bowls broccoli soup, oranges, chocolate croissant, and a lime ice pop. Off to do it all again today :).
