Architectural España

Today Ang flew home and i am sad...tomorrow she will be at work, getting back into the swing of her life, with the additional excitment that her sister Bonnie will be around for a month. I on the other hand will be in Barcelona for one more night...and tonight is the festival of Saint John, which celebrates the shortest night of the year, the 24th of June. There will be fireworks, bonfires, dancing, and celebrations all over Barcelona, so i think i will go out and be a part of all of it with my camera at my side, but not for too long, as tomorrow, early, i will be heading south to the coast, and then north east towards Sant Feliu, i hope to put in 100 km (60 miles) so that i can camp out between there and Girona, as it is sparsly populated and i should have no problem camping. Probably in 2 days i will be in Girona, anxious to explore some of the Roman bath houses, and cathedrals. From there i will make my way north west, towards Olot in the hopes that i can make it to Ribes in the same day, another 100 km or so. Today i am just doing the last of my shopping, washing, cleaning, organizing, maintanancing, etc before i go to bed, so as to be up and out by 7 am. It will be a long and hot day tomorrow, the temperature today is hovering at 75, but i should get a cool breeze from the sea, which could be good and bad at the same time. Thats it for now, here are some pictures from me and Ang´s architectural fiasco yesterday...
