The lighthouse at Formentor, Mallorca

The background shows sidewalk tiles - "rajoles" - that pave the sidewalks throughout Barcelona. They were designed by architect Puig i Cadafalch for the entryway of a home. Since 1915, they have been used by the city to pave sidewalks, and have become emblematic of the city. One of the city's most famous chocolatiers, Enric Rovira, produces chocolate bars in the shape and design of these tiles.

So Long, Farewell

In spite of everything we do to prevent it, we have transfers every six weeks - which means saying goodby to some of the very best!

 
We enjoyed a little farewell fiesta with Elder Laney by walking over to Tomas de Sarria and having what are considered the best patatas bravas (think fries and fry sauce) in all of Spain.
