My last trip in Europe...for now!

Hello for one of the last times from Barcelona!

Yesterday I returned from the beautiful beaches of Mallorca....well to be honest, we opted to stay at our gorgeous hotel more times than we visited the beach! When originally deciding on where to stay when going to Mallorca, we decided to splurge a little and make our last trip feel more like a vacation (as if we needed a vacation from Barcelona!) and looked into hotels instead of standard hostels. Well we lucked out because we found a 4 start hotel resort for only 46 euros a night. That means with 3 people in each room, we only ended up spending 15 euros a night! That's an even better price than some of the hostels I've stayed in over these past four months.

The hotel was gorgeous! It had multiple pools (outdoor, indoor, one for kids, one for people 18+) and great views of the national park behind it. We spent most of our time at the "chill out" pool for 18+ because it had these amazing cabana beds and massage jets in the pool.




I wish I had more exciting things to tell you about our trip, but we literally relaxed the entire time! It was a nice change of pace from the Barcelona lifestyle and I feel well rested and very tan now! Today I'm headed to the Picasso Museum since I still have not been and then am going to walk around and souvenir shop. Tomorrow I am going to take advantage of the Bus Touristic pass Erica and Holly bought me when they came to visit and going to see my city for the last time before I leave! Should be a lovely two days in Barcelona :) Friday morning I finally head home back to the States and I am so excited to see my family again! It's such a bittersweet feeling though... I don't want to leave this amazing city and all the amazing friends I have met behind! Thank you Barcelona, and everyone who helped me discover it, for the most incredible past 4 months of my life :)
