recharged batteries



I'm back! We spent Easter holiday in Spain, visiting Girona and Barcelona. Which means this year we lived the “going abroad and doing a visiting friends and family-marathon” version of Easter with a dash of outdoor beer and green olives. We were blessed with sun and blue skies and after a long winter I feel that my batteries are charged with new energy.

On our way home on Sunday we came early to the airport. I was afraid to get bored, but there were so many pretty and fun things to watch that the time flew. These are photos from terminal 1, the new terminal in “El Prat” the airport in Barcelona.



I love its light, the lines, the reflections of the floor and the quietness.



Colourful summer tunica’s and gowns from Desigual



teas from Natura



And funky jam rythms from Lewis Larke Band that made me and Astrid twist our dance foot.

  2. Så deilig å rese bort i påsken... til litt varmere strøk. Påskeværet var jo litt ymse her på "furet værbitt" så jeg tenker at sol og oliven ikke var så dumt, gitt!

    Takk, snille deg, for din søte kommentar hos meg for litt siden. Din omtanke virkelig varmet mitt hjerte. Nå er jeg tilbake lell, og alt er vel... resten er å lese i bloggen min, hvis du vil. Jeg gleder meg til en vanlig bloggehverdag igjen!

  6. It sounds like you had a lovely Easter and to see some sun....my friend loves Desigual and she has just moved from Bath, UK to Seville so will at least get the chance to wear all the colourful clothes this summer. I will go visit her in June!

  7. Me alegro que pasaras unos buenos días por estas tierras! La verdad es que hemos tenido bastante suerte con el tiempo y se ha podido, como mínimo, practicar un poco de "terraza".

  8. One of my favorite activities is people watching. And you obviously appreciate the beauty around you, too. Who can get bored with that?

    (and one of my favorite places to people watch is at the airport!)
