Anne and Aaron’s Visit:

If you take all the places Kate, John, Annie, Leslie, and I have seen in BCN and add them together it would not equal the amount of places Anne and Aaron saw here on their Spring Break! They were definitely busy tourists and got their money’s worth! Of course the airport again was a nightmare. I sat in the terminal waiting for their 2:45 plane to arrive for 6 hours! I finally got fed up and left and you know ten minutes after I arrived at my place our buzzer was ringing and it was them! I still can’t believe that anyone can find our flat but somehow Leslie and Anne and Aaron managed. I felt bad because as Anna and Aaron were settling in every one of our friends were coming in the flat ready to drink and party and all the couple wanted was sleep. Since it was Kate and my birthdays we had people over to the flat to pre-game before heading out to the club. A and A opted not to join us because jet lag had set in. I can honestly say that sometimes during the week I forgot that A and A were even here because they would get up before I got up for work and wouldn’t return until my work day was over. We went to a Japanese restaurant where they cook in front of you on Sunday for my real birthday. Proper Spanish style the meal lasted over 4 hours long! The rest of the week Anne and Aaron saw the sights, Anne ate a nasty hamburger (I forgot to warn her not to), and I got them wasted on their last night here. We ended up going to the bar down the street that has kegs at your table. As your table drinks everyone watches the TV screens to see who has drunk the most beer and when some other table passes you everyone yells! It’s an amazing place. Afterwards, we took them to a couple of bars along the water and Anne ended up drunk as a sunk at a hidden bar I like to go to. Anne thought it was really cool that there are bars here that look like flats and you have to ring the bell to be allowed in. All in all, I think they had a great time and we were happy to host them (you know they had to buy me dinner and brought Skyline!). If you want more details ask Anne!
