Los Stuhan: Girona "Puente"

So, for our most recent "puente" -- three day weekend -- we decided to bite the bullet, load up the kids, and make our first overnight trip since we arrived in Barcelona. We had a great time and have pretty hardy little travelers, as we find time and again. I think they hold up better than we do these days : ).

We chose Girona, a little city just about a 1.5 hour train ride NW of us, because it's close, easy to get to, and we loved visiting there and roaming the streets when we lived here before.

Waiting for our train and loving every minute (croissant as a morning snack probably had something to do with it).

I'm working on fitting in more, wardrobe wise, I was pretty successful this day.

There are a bunch of little locks with names and dates on them all along the same bridge I'm standing on above. I imagine people are "locking their love," it's really sweet.

Didn't have a lock so we settled for a kiss.

The fun of small Spanish towns. I love so much about this picture. The rich color, the fact that a new building is going to be inserted between these two older buildings, the "graffiti"/mural on the wall below, how the scaffolding looks like it might actually be balancing those two buildings weight against each other so they don't actually fall down (okay, so maybe that's what they are actually doing), all the windows and doors ...

I can't say how long this little shop has been here and open but well over a century and I imagine much of the wood and paneling are original. Charming!
