The morning began in the breakfast room with all of us choosing our coffee from the mega coffee machine.

Then we proceeded to the buffet.

After breakfast we rolled into the hotel’s conference room which we are using as a studio for painting.

After a few hours of painting we wandered out to explore more Barcelona. Some went to the museums and a few of us went to visit a local yarn shop called All You Knit is Love, where Bette, the champion knitter of our group bought some locally made yarn. She helped me fine a remedial knitting project for myself to knit on the plane ride home.

We were then so exhausted we had to get some protein.

After that we stopped by the Santa Caterina market, which was filled with stalls displaying extraordinarily delicious looking foods.
