Hur de dur dur, did lots of tourist things today
No pictures yet because at our janky little internet cafe you have to choose between sound, a working shift key, and a USB connection, but it’s okay because we’re going to Montserrat tomorrow to see the crazy-looking mountains so I will take even more pictures and post them all and it will be awesome. Today I went to the Palau de la Música de Catalunya and it was so ridiculously pretty but of course they didn’t allow cameras, nur nur nur. Then I went to Parque Güell because I thought my family and I had missed a big part of it but it turns out we didn’t so I just sat on the bench for a little while being sleepy (despite the fact that I overslept by an hour and a half this morning and almost missed tutoring the guy in English and subsequently had to miss my freezing cold shower, which actually wasn’t too bad) and took a couple of neat pictures and stuff and stuff. Oh! All of the English tours of the Palau de la Música were sold out so I went on a Spanish one and I understood her perfectly! So that’s it, I can go home now. Naw, just kidding. I still have to look up every fifth word in freaking Harry Potter so I obviously still have years of work left to do.
Umm, I gotta go in a minute to call several people such as Jason, whose birthday it is today! So here are a bunch of pictures from when my family came to visit: Oh shoot! The internet’s closing in a few minutes! Captions tomorrow. Shoot shoot shoot.

« I finally went to the beach that's two blocks from our apartment!» Well curses, by now I am so behind that I will never catch up
Herro my rove! I just wanted to touch base with you about this week. I’ll need to know your ETA into Galway so that I’ll know when to come down to the bus station to retrieve you. So give me your itinerary as soon as you know it (preferably on facebook, or of you see me on AIM). Also, I assume that you don’t have a cell phone, but it would be good for you to have my cell phone #. Calling from within Ireland, my # is 086 3208572. So if you find a payphone before you get on the bus to Galway and tell me about how soon you’ll be getting in, that would be best. Anyhoo, can’t wait to see you! EEEEEEEEE!

Do you know the comic called Zits. He is a typical spaced out teenager and is now learning to drive.
His mom has an accident with him in the car.
The mom says, “Thanks for helping me through the paperwork on this accident, Jeremy. I’m really grateful.”
Then Jeremy says “ Six-month backpacking trip through Europe grateful, or ice cream cone on the way home grateful?”
And the mother says,“chocolate or vanilla?”
