Adéu

Tonight is my last night in Barcelona. I leave early tomorrow; my taxi comes at 8AM. I spent my last day as I normally would: Rising late, strolling in the 73 degree sun, napping, spending my last euros at Zara, overindulging in an undeserved seafood dinner, and of course, in true Barcelona form, sleeping way past my bedtime.

"I have learned how to live.

How to be in the world and of the world and not just to stand aside and watch.

And I will never, never again run away from life."

Will complete my last few updates, most likely bored, from 12 Ginnie Lane.

La Barceloneta

Didn't even realize it was almost 9pm; the sun never stops shining.

"I want to step out down the Champs-Élysées..."

Oh, Paris...

A clear day
