Gina and I were delighted to have my parents come stay with us in September. Their timimg couldn't have been better -- they were here for the Mercè Festival and got to experience many of Catalunya's cultural activities: gegants, the correfoc, and the Castellers. Despite a few showers and the occasional downpour, the weather was pretty nice and they were able to see quite a few of Gaudi's architectural masterpieces. Throw in some tapas at the Txakolin, some wine tasting down on the Moll de la Fusta (Port Vell), some cheese tasting at La Seu and my homemade tortilla de patatas and I'd say they had quite a gourmet experience as well.
