Port Aventura park

 
Today I went to Port Aventura park in Salou, near Tarragona. The first ride was tutuki splash, a boat than slide down very fast and you get wet. Me and mum had to wait for at least an hour, so when we got on the boat we were very excited.
 



 
We also went to far west  area me and mum went on Stampida a roller coaster. I was at the front row with mum at first it looked safe but when we took a heavy drop it was like 20 meters down. What happened is that my aunty got confused with the kids ride and we were on an adults one.

Climbing at la Musara

Yesterday we flew back to Barcelona and drove to Salou. On Sunday me Silvia and Albert went climbing. I thought it would be easy but I got very scared so Albert hooked me onto the a wall. This is a picture of me on the wall.
After climbing we went to Reus to visit Tata, Lourdes, Juan  and Joan. Joan taught me how to play his electric guitar. It was fun.

The Cathedral

Today me and mum went to see the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. The cathedral is the destination  of the way of St. James, a major historical pilgrims route since the early Middle Ages. The building was very old. It took more than 100 years to be built from 1075 to 1211.
 
This is me inside, you can see the 'butafumeiro' this is used to burn incense and  swings side to side.

Cold surf in Pantín

Today I went to Pantín in the Atlantic ocean to go for a surf. There were plenty of waves. I just stood  there and watched ten people surf. The surf looked very small  but it was very big like bigger than the people out there. 
The water was  freezing cold so I came in about five times to get warm
This is a picture of me coming in from the surf. Zane was happy to see me.

Finisterre

Today we went to Cape Finisterre. The name comes from the Latin finis terrae meaning 'end of the earth'.
Cape Finisterre is the final destination for many pilgrims on the way to St. James. 
In the old times everybody thought that this was the only land and that the world was flat. 
I was climbing rocks all the time and mum would say get off the rocks  you could get hurt but it was so fun

Combarro

Today we went to Combarro,it is a little town with little streets. We found this bar that sells chocolate con churros and it also had a keyboard that I could play.
 

Combarro had a lot of horreos those were very little houses to store  and dry the corn and other cereals. These houses are high above  ground to keep dry and out of reach from animals.
Here I am in a mini boat ramp you can see an horreo on the  right.

El Camino

On Sunday me mum Cristina and Xesca went to Galicia by plane. Galicia is in the northwest of Spain just on top of Portugal.
Since Monday, mum and Cristina have been walking el camino with Zane in the pram. There are lots of pilgrims walking to Santiago de Compostela. On Tuesday I walked 5.5 km in one hour pushing the pram with baby asleep.
This is a picture of me next to one of the signs that mark the way to Santiago. Most pilgrims carry a shell like that one on their backpacks.

Barcelona

Today I went to the football to watch Barcelona vs Murcia.
It was very fun because every now and then we had to stand up and wave our hands and say 'Olay'. The only bad thing was that Messi wasn't there playing but he was watching the game from the side
because he was injured and also the player with number twenty two was leaving Barcelona and this was his final game. I had lots of fun and a great time.
This is a picture of me at the Camp Nou.
