Today I am participating in Where in the World Wednesdays, Classy in Philadelphia’s awesome weekly series. In honor of this past weekend’s World Cup match featuring Spain and the Netherlands, two of my favorite places in the world, I’m going to feature both today. I’m sad that the Netherlands lost, but glad Spain, an equally deserving team, won! These will just be pictures with brief descriptions, no time today for a real post!
The idea of WITWW is to post a picture of you in someplace in the world…it doesn’t have to be somewhere foreign or tropical. Just a picture of you somewhere that you consider traveling.
We will start in Amsterdam…
Bikes and canals...the epitome of Amsterdam!
The Red Light District at night
This is the guy I was traveling with. He was having a REALLY bad trip off a special brownie and this was day two of babysitting him.
I love Amsterdam. Seriously.
This is the Anne Frank Huis, one of the best museums I've ever been to. So powerful. DO NOT MISS THIS if you go to Amsterdam!
And moving onto Spain…
I discovered the wonders of siestas, hammocks and wine in the middle of the day in Seville.
Seville was magical
Loved the little streets with beautiful architecture everywhere you went in Seville
Nerja: only the most beautiful, relaxing place on earth.
I hiked out to an abandonned monastery while I was in Granada. The scenery was so beautiful and the monastery was awesome!
View out over the city of Granada from the Alhambra
The Alhambra at sunset. Gorgeous!
Barcelona was amazing. La Boqueria along Las Ramblas was a great market where I got fresh fruit smoothies daily.
I hate to say it, but the touristy attraction at the Placa Espanya, a fountain light show with music, was really fun to go see!
Park Guell, designed by Gaudi, was one of the highlights from my trip to BCN!

So fun!! We’re planning a Med. cruise this winter that starts in Barcelona, so we’re going to spend a few extra days there at the beginning. I am so excited for all of the Gaudi architecture and art!!
Amazing pics
