When we got up this morning we found out that it had snowed all night. What better to do that take advantage of it? 
And here we got outside.  _Lilly_ , Bussi and me played in the snow and even build a snowman. His name is Berthold. 

In the afternoon I said goodbye to my mum and my friends because I start my journey today. 
I am going to Barcelona/ Spain. What a great place for my very first journey. 

Love

Betty Bear

Welcome Suny!!!!

Hi mom!
Today is the last day of Carnival festivities and here in Catalonia this day is called “enterrament de la sardina” (burial of the sardine). About why is called this way, there are a hypothesis, among others. First of all, to bury something is a way to forget it, to take leave of it… And the hypothesis is that the back-bone of the pigs was known as “sardine” and it was buried at the end of Carnival to start the Lent.
To celebrate it, we have eaten a sardine made of bread with chocolate. It was delicious!!!!

Good morning mom!!!!
It’s snowing!!!! It’s sooooo strange in Barcelona!!!! As you can see, here it’s only raining, but, can you see the mountain behind me?

Hi mom!!
Today we went out for a walk and we went to the shopping center “La Maquinista”. “La Maquinista” is situated where the metallurgic fabric “La Maquinista Terrestre i Marítima” was in the past. Here you can see us taking a rest in front of the little park of “La Maquinista”.



This is the large pond, situated in the middle of the park, named Narcís Monturiol (a Catalonian engineer, who invented the first crew submarine). It was built in order to take advantage of the two nearby water sources and it’s used to irrigate the park. Inside the pond you can see the large antique wheel that reminds us of the industrial past of the land. And the building near the pond is “Museo de La Maquinista y Macosa”, a museum which contains historical documents, plans, photographs, models and historical objects from the old factory.


The shopping center!!!!


After visit some shops, we take a rest in a lounge terrace.


Can you see the big clock on the floor??? There was a projector which projected the small hands of the clock to show the hour, but it’s out of order


In the first floor there are the restaurants, near another lounge terrace.


It seems like a jungle!!!


Before come back home, we met Tom and Jerry, who drove us in their sidecar


We had a fun afternoon!

Hello mom!!
We spent the weekend at hostdad home, so we’re in the train to Sants, the central train station.


In Sants we took another train to Gavà. The views aren’t so nice, just buildings, roads or industrial parks…



Finally we were in Gavà!! This is the train station.


We did a bit of sightseeing while we went to hostdad home. This is the church.


And in this little square there’s a grower with some asparagus.


We spent the afternoon at home and then we went to have supper at hamburger, in the shopping center.


Suny found a little palm tree and she wanted to climb it, just for training, because she wants a bigger one! We waited for her


Then we went to the hamburger and shared a big hamburger with fries. Good appetite!!

Hi!
Today we stayed at hostdad home playing games. We joined with the other guys who live here, Koala, Pitufina, Beaker, Cálico and Super Coco. Zero introduced us and we took a group photo



First we played alone…


… And after, we played two by two to Kinect, Michael Jackson experience. I played with Pitufina and we had a lot of fun!
