Olive Picking!






Hola!

On Friday some of our neighbors (from England) invited us to their "farmhouse" today to help them with their olive picking. They get them pressed into olive oil, which they said they would share with us. Well it turned out that their "farmhouse" was a beautiful old Spanish masia out in the countryside about 40 minutes from here. It was gorgeous! Here is the link to the masia, apparently they rent it out from time to time: http://www.dosroures.com/. The pictures are amazing. It was a gorgeous day, and they had lots of fun things for the kids to do. The olive picking was very fun and relaxing, and the kids helped quite a bit as well. This family has 2 girls, and then 3 other families also came to help pick, all with young kids. It was a great day enjoying the beautiful weather, countryside, and meeting some really nice people.

Tomorrow we are headed into Barcelona for church and meeting up with Josep, Teresa & Joan at Tibidabo, an amusement park for kids on top of the mountain looking over Barcelona and the sea. I'm sure it will be fun and I'll post more photos tomorrow night! Brian leaves Monday morning for training in Miami but then is home for a long stretch after that.

Adios for now!

Love,

Tonya
