La Garriga
I love shopping for small quantities of food each day on foot, and I'm obssessed with the windows and doors here.
La Garriga is full of beautiful villas, many of them uninhabited or converted to schools and the like now.
What a cute gelato-eating husband.
In front of his favorite villa.
All kinds of flowers and plants adorn windowsills and patios. But roses especially are everywhere.
Notice the flag of Catalonia?Barcelona
It's fun taking pictures in dark places with my new lens.
The famous Rambla. So fun to stroll down.
Zoë takes her naps where she can get them these days.
Madrid

She's learning a lot from all the people she's around--like how to put purses on her shoulder.
The reason we're here. My dad in the Plaza Mayor surrounded by the students he's directing on study abroad this term.
Alcalá de Henares
People here call Zoë "blancita"--we do all we can to keep the sun off that whiter than white skin!
Our friend Kristin arrived the other day! We're standing here next to what is, according to my dad, the longest covered walkway of its kind in Europe, with columns dating back to the 15th or 16th century.
It's hard to tell in this photo, but I had an "aha" moment looking up at these pigeons, similar to the time I realized in Mexico that goats have goatees. They're in pigeon holes!
Oh, these don't remind you of anything? I guess you haven't been nursing a baby for the last year . . .
Our local plaza (one of the most beautiful I've seen in Spain) by night.
