we made it!

we said we'd go visit laura in spain when we bid her farewell this summer, and we meant it. remember laura? she was our 19 year old roommate from madrid who stayed with us for a short time last summer, before moving on to our friends tom and emily's house. she and her mom came to madison, we showed them around, and had a lovely time in may 2018.
evidence of lovely time from last spring:


well, we went to spain for spring break and stayed with laura's mom's boyfriend fernando, and we all had a wonderful time. we also went to barcelona and sevilla without our hosts, and also had a lovely time there. full details coming....for sure. you know how i like to write this all down.

sneak peek of those travel pictures: here are my faithful travel companions, just boning up on some in flight safety instructions before take off from chicago at the very start of our trip.
