Barcelona, Spain. Home to the most amazing church we’ve ever seen, a Gothic Quarter not to be missed, crazy wonderful human statues, and food to die for. If that’s not enough, meet a genius artist that changed the city forever and invokes so much emotion – you have to either love him or hate him…

How I shared my first inappropriate adult-to-adult laugh with my daughter. Not exactly a Hallmark moment – but I’ll take it.
