We're in Barcelona now. Wow. It's the perfect place to live if you're
not interested in eating dinner until 10:00 PM or later.
Arc de Triomf
No, you're thinking of Paris. This is Barcelona's Arch of Triumph built as the main entrance to the 1888 Universal Exposition. That's our apartment building visible through the arch. In fact our flat is on the top floor and our arched window is at center.
News & Notes
Restaurant hours aside, Barcelona is a terrific city. We've been touring every afternoon when the sites open up post siesta. A favorite was the Picasso Museum. It is housed in 5 medieval palaces that have been connected. It focuses on his time in Barcelona, which was early in his career.
Dan presented his research on fossils from western Illinois at a conference in Cincinnati. We have a large enough copy of this photo to allow you to read all of the details. Get your requests in early.
After returning home from Cyprus, Dan decided to try baking galatabouriko, his favorite Greek dessert. Of course, when you're working at home on the range, you need to be wearing your cowboy hat. He reports a 5 star success!
We're headed off to Paris on the 13th of July to celebrate Bastille Day. We'll be back in Seattle after July 18th.
