SPAIN

Here are a few choice pictures from our trip to Spain. Some are better than others. Please feel free to leave comments about how awesome we are and the awesome things that we do.


Note: Captions are underneath the picture they are describing.


(they are also in backwards order...apparently that's the way this blog rolls)


At the Tim Burton exhibit at the MOMA in NYC. So amazing.



A stroll through Central Park.

This picture is sideways, but you can
see all the flights in red that are cancelled
due to the volcanic ash cloud. We were lucky.

On a beach in Mijas Costa.


Proof that I really did drive in Spain.

A beautiful plaza in Estepa, and Steve
looking at yet another map.

Some pretty Spanish balconies.
