Barcelona!

We have just returned from our special wedding anniversary trip to Barcelona - without kids!!

What a lovely place it is - and so inspiring. I have come back with loads of ideas buzzing around in my head. Unfortunately I also have loads of washing to do which will have to come first - but not before I've posted to my blog!

We visited the Sagrada Familia which was stunning. I was particularly partial to all the text that was included and also found the funicular model especially inspiring. All those little bags of lead pellets - amazing. Then we went to Casa Battlo and Casa Mila.

The buildings are so decorative and the tiny shops with a whole host of goodies on display. It was lovely not to be met with the same old main brand shops - although as soon as we got home Ruby asked if there was a Top Shop or a New Look there! Whose child is she??!

Anyway it's good to be able to touch base with you - back to the real world now - ho hum!

I have decided that I must crack this Blogging thing! I am really going to try and post every week and take my camera out with me to places so that I can take pictures that I can share.

I am going to have to steal myself to comment on other people's blogs - which as quite a shy individual is something that doesn't come easily to me.

I have been working hard today getting things ready for my Craft Market in Hereford on 13th June. I am going to have to be extremely organised this time as we fly out to Barcelona on 14th June to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I know - whose stupid idea was it to book both things so close together! It didn't seem SUCH a stupid idea at the time - although I have to question my own judgement as the dates are looming larger! Chris and I haven't had a holiday without kids for about 10 years so I'm really looking forward to it - and I've always wanted to go to Barcelona. I'm hoping I'll come back all inspired after seeing the gorgeous architecture and art.
