Barcelona



Barcelona is a beautiful city set right on the Mediterranean Sea. The amazing architecture reminds me of being in New York. The people are friendly and helpful. There are all kinds of sidewalk cafes where you can get a cappucino and pastry. The other picture is of the Sagrada Familia, a temple begun in the late 1800's by the architect Gaudi and still under construction. One interesting site I saw today was part of an original Roman wall built at the time of the Roman Empire.

I board the ship on Saturday and will be heading to Nice. Stay tuned!

Frankfurt Airport



I've just flown from Chicago and have landed in Frankfort, Germany. The weather is warm and it's interesting to see people from different cultures and to hear languages other than English over the loud speaker. I fly next to Barcelona.

Happy Start of Summer!

I have been working at Nordstrom for the past two weekends and am now preparing for my journey to Europe. I was taken to Germany once as an infant, but this will be my first real trip to Europe. I am excited about being able to visit many of the places we spent a lot of time talking and learning about this past year.

Hopefully my experiences will enhance and extend our collective learning.

Until next time,
Mr. Moon
