Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there! It wasn't Father's Day in Spain but we celebrated on Sunday anyway with a special meal and a trip to the beach.
Everyone always talks about how lucky we are to have the beach in Barcelona but the truth is that I don't really like beaches all that much.
Now you're thinking that I'm obviously the long-lost twin sister of the Grinch. The one who hated the beach. Dr. Suess wrote a book about me as well but it was deemed to depressing to publish. Because what kind of person doesn't like the beach?
Today was worth it though and I think the sun may have melted my icy beach-hating heart just a tiny bit.
What's to love about sand? It gets in your mouth, it gets in your underwear, it gets in your ears, it's hot to walk on, it's impossible to pull a stroller on top of...

Spanish beaches: On the plus side, fresh air, interesting views. On the negative, sand, sand and sand. Toddlers and sand is a love hate relationship. It looks a little chillier up there in Barcelona than it is down here in Algeciras.
