May 15th - Winding Down

This is the start of my last week here in BCN.  I have a few more finals (I did pass my Language one so you know) then on Friday I´m off to London for 5 days.  From there I head north to Doncaster for one night with Dave Holmes´ Family (a "mate" on my team in Bing) then it´s back to BCN on the 25th, and back to JFK on the 26th.  I´m looking foward to seeing everyone and being back home in general.  See ya soon!!  Complete Journal

May 5-7 - Feria de Abril and Barça parade

This was your typical fair.. if you don´t count the flamenco dancing that was going on all over.  There were countless tents representing different clubs and regions in southern Spain that live in BCN.  I hadn´t been to a fair in a few years so it was fun to walk around and check things out.  The BBQ smelled amazing and they were cooking EVERYthing!  They were still going strong at 2am when we left.  Before we left we had to stop into one of the tents and get some beer and tapas and watch some flamenco.

May 6th - Red Bull Air Show

Well I´ve been without internest a while but here goes a quick catch up.  I went to the Red Bull Air Race show on the beach that Saturday.  His aunt and uncle that were visiting came along with over a million other people (really).  It was crazy packed!  The show started with some helicopter stunts then an old bomber flew over.  Finally, the race started.  Eleven tiny planes went through the same course, completing a series of loops, turns, and flying through blow-up pylons that were only 13 meters off the water.  They went through twice and the best combined time won.  It was pretty cool.  If you´re going to be in Turkey next month, def check it out!
