Day 1 year 2015

So the new year has started and with it all the new years resolutions, ideas, thoughts, memories of times past…

We are know ready for the three kings feast.  We celebrate this is Martorell, Barcelona, as Lluis my husband is from there.  So we celebrate Christmas with my side of the family and then we travel to Catalonia for the three kings feast which we celebrate with this side of the family.  Like this everyone is happy especially all the in laws.

This year we decided to drive from Gibraltar to Barcelona, its roughly about 1158 kilometres if you don’t get lost that is :)……which we did this year….but nothing bad ever comes of making mistakes, we pasted through Almeria, which took us through the desert of Tabernas were most of all 60’s and 70’s western movies were filmed.  It was a nice experience, I half expected to see Clint Eastwood with his cowboy hat smoking a big fat cigar ride by on a big horse.

Well we finally arrived after a 10hr drive, the kids behaved themselves admirably and were very excited to see their grandparents and as usual my mother in law had one of my kids favourite dish ready for supper, “sopa de mandonguillas” (add link to receipe) little meatball soup.  My niece and nephew have grown since august when we last saw them and they were over the moon with our arrival.

Kisses, hugs, and more kisses have been the order of the night, supper and now a good nights sleep, as it has been a long day.
