Well, we've been here 6 months now. It's hard to believe. No more lovely green mountains in the distance. We are in the middle of 6 million people. The parks are strictly urban.
And the walk to the doctor's office takes us over 20 lanes of traffic.
And yet what is always so interesting about cities is how all the concrete, steel and glass remain so utterly human.
We miss Collserola, the Plaza del monasterio, the ice cream parlours along the main street, the quiet small streets with their shops and benches. Oh and we miss our swimming pool!
Good luck on your exams and have a lovely summer!
