Barcelona vs Ac Milan - Spring Break 2012
















Cody and Jeremy enjoyed another soccer match (Barcelona vs AC Milan)! Final score Barca 3 - AC Milan 1!! I sent Jeremy with the camera however, the longer lens stayed at the Hotel :( He was able to capture some good shots. Thanks, Babe!

Devin and I had a date night. We spent our evening trying to find a great restaurant. We found quite a few however, they didn't open until 8 p.m. So we decided to walk to the bookstore. He found a couple of things that he couldn't live without. We were both getting hungry so we decided to go back to our Hotel and have a few tapas (appetizers). Since none of the Restaurants were serving dinner, just yet. After dinner we walked to the candy store. Made it back to the Hotel and enjoyed episodes of Ben Ten.

So the first soccer match we all went to I mentioned that we took the subway (to and from). Well, on the way home, the lines were super long. When we were able to finally squeeze into one.....two didn't make it. We were packed in like a bunch of sardines. Jeremy and Devin were left just waving goodbye (with smiles)! I was so furious but later realize it was the right thing for them to do. Okay, so Cody and I are heading back....and yes we know what station to exit. So not even five minuets into our trip the train makes an emergency stop. A message comes on in Spanish stating that theres been an emergency please step away from the doors. So my emotions went from being super mad to super scared. Looking outside all you see is black walls. A few minuets later, the same message comes on again.  Then the a/c shuts off. At this point, I'm just trying to hide my emotions from the Codeman. I'm telling the Gentlemen in front of the door to try to step away from the door. That was useless because he didn't know English. Now it's starting to get hot in the cab. When the a/c shut off so did the train. In my mind, I'm thinking this is all Jeremy's fault, we're going to be here for a while, people are going to start fighting and we're going to be in the middle of it. What seems like forever, in reality, it must have been eight minuets until we were finally on our way!!
Cody looks at me and says, "Atta boy, Thomas....I knew you could do it"!
I didn't know if I should laugh or cry!!
Talking about an emotional roller coaster ride!!
