One woman's ordinary journey through an extraordinary world
Today I really did take it easy. Although it would have been nice to sleep in, at about 6:30 this morning out in the square, the sound of falling pipes woke me up. Apparently, there was an open-air market being set up for Carnival. Therefore, I just sat around until Jason got up. We finally …
Everyday gets better than the last. This morning I got up and went over to the Boqueria and got Jason the fruit he’s been wanting. I got two pears, two kiwis and a kilo of strawberries. I stopped and got a container of fresh cut pineapple for breakfast. Sitting outside the hotel on the steps …
I got a late start. I didn’t sleep well and I was sleeping in. Jason called me around 11am, but I missed the call. I got up at that point and got ready for the day. I had my chocolate and churros again, but this time I also had an American coffee to go with …
So last night I couldn’t get my computer to connect to the wireless access at the hotel. Thinking that it was a problem with the hotel’s router I packed it up last night and figured I would try it again with Jason before he headed off to the conference. Well, this morning it still wasn’t …
It seems to me that Barcelona is a walking city. What do I mean by walking city? It’s a city where it’s easier to get from place to place by walking rather than driving a car. San Francisco is a walking city, and I would venture to say that Washington, D.C. makes a good walking …

One thing that I knew I wanted to do when I got here was to eat Churros and Chocolate in an outdoor sidewalk cafe and just enjoy watching the people pass by. Well by George, this morning was the day. I have to say it was every bit as awesome as I had imagined it. …
So day 1 for us was really the second 1/2 of day 0.5. After we dropped our bags off at the hotel we went out sight seeing to kill some time before our room was ready. Like last year, the Children’s festival was going, and the parade was something to see. It seemed to me …
Although Sunday was our first day in Barcelona it was pretty much a blur. Getting here was definitely the hard part. We left our house at 9:00 in the morning on Saturday and dropped the kids off at Barbara’s house. We headed up to the airport and thankfully there was no traffic. We got to …
This is short promotional video that I produced for a friend’s Non-Profit organization, Totally Committed Community Outreach Center (TCCOC). This was my first attempt at editing and producing video on a “semi-professional” basis. TCCOC was founded by my friend, Mr. Larry Hill. Mr. Hill is the Director of the Outreach Ministry, Restoration Christian Fellowship Church …
