Wonderful weekend in BCN

We stayed put this weekend and didn't go skiing y nada. And it was fab.

Picking up winds allowed us to test our new kite at the beach which was wonderful in the sunset.
Winds got worse and hurricane "Klaus" managed to take of the neighboring houses roof and throw it over onto our roof terrace!! Luckily noone was hurt and the part of the terrace hit was not "our" half. It was the wierdest storm bc it was bright and sunny - yet so crazily windy! Motos and trees were falling over in all areas, buses and trains were suspended and it was a biiig exciting mess! We're happy everyone we know is doing fine.

Regardless of the wind we took an adventurous trip to IKEA which lead to mattress testing and a new 100x70xm frame - olé!

And in the evening we took the first train to Sitges to visit Julia and Juanjo - for a wonderful evening of Fondu and drinks in town. Here's a pic of Mattes with lovely Coco :)

Sunday was sumer-like, so we headed for Vall Parc to play some tennis - or better said Mattes played tennis and I was the referee. Here also, the hurricane had done some real damage.

And we rounded off the weekend by having Davide and Fishy over for some yummy pumpkin-coconut soup on Sunday evening... Last dinner without wine! Today, Monday, is Australia Day and the alcohol-sugar-caffeine-free month is oveeeeer! :))

Have a great start to the new week, everyone!*
