Atticus, one lesson for life is that you don't always have to go out of your way for adventure. You just need to know where to look. I was visiting your Tonton and Auntie M. in Brussels and they told me that if I wanted a real adventure I had come to Belgium at just the right time. Auntie M. told me that all I needed to do was look up! Sure enough, the Spring Equinox was coinciding with a solar eclipse in this part of the world, the most complete eclipse since 1999! It was a cloudy day, but I was hopeful. I looked to the sky and sure enough the sun showed itself and then.... the moon begin to hide the sun, forming a crescent sun... and then, finally as the sun was revealed once more it seemed to shine even brighter through the clouds. Absolutely incredible!!!!! Stellar!!!
Well Atticus, my latest adventure took my to the 'caliente' city of Barcelona. I gorged myself on tapas and jamon ;). I lazed around on the sunny squares below the palm trees, and I was amazed by the great architectural creations of Gaudi, especially the ongoing project of la Sagrada Familia. What an incredible imagination Gaudi had!
