Porque No Te Callas??!!

Once we left Dublin, we landed in Barcelona, Spain and had no idea what we were in for!
We spent a couple days in the city looking around and having a good time. Nothing could have prepared us for what we were about to experience. We headed to Torrella de Montgri, the village of my good friend Celia. The whole Palli family made us feel so comfortable. We spent countless hours touring the beach towns with white houses facing the Mediterranean sea, eating seafood Paella and sipping glasses of wine. We saw Medieval villages, with narrow, cobblestone streets and walls covered with vines. With the help of the whole family, we experienced a lot that the Catalan region of Spain had to offer. I think my most favourite meal of the day in Spain is Merienda! This is a late-afternoon snack where you get to drink Xocolata (basically, melted chocolate in a mug)paired with Churros, (basically fried dough with sugar). I don't think people eat this meal everyday...but we sure did! My new favourite meal!
Having spent this time together with Celia and her family has created an amazing bond. We miss everyone so terribly.
(And in case you are wondering what the title of this post means...well, this is an inside joke that we share with the Palli family and most of Spain...you can go to youtube.com and watch the video if you like!)

MUCHAS GRACIAS CELIA, CLARA, CHRISTINA and PAPA PALLI!! WE WILL SEE YOU IN AUGUST!
