Leaving Venice - Jaden

Hi everyone,

Has anything interesting happened at home?

Me and Beckett on our taxi (boat) ride to the Venice Airport

Yesterday, Feburuary 20, 2014  we left Venice. To get to Barcalona we first, we took a water taxi to the airport. It was kind of weird that the airport was on it's own island. The ride was pretty bumpy but we made it. The front of the taxi looked like a speed boat but the back was like a little room with benches all around it. The ceiling in the taxi was only like 4 and a half feet high. When we got to the dock we took about a 5 minute walk to the airport.

Our Welcome Cake at the Apartment we are staying

When we got to thne airport we went through 2 really long lines one for check-in and the other for security. Then we went and had a snack at a resturant.

After that we got on the plane. The plane ride was about an hour and a half to waste the time my brother and I read and played games.

Our first walk through Barcelona...Gaudi!

After about an hour and 10 minutes we could look down and see Barcalona, it was amazing I could see everything it was huge!  I could see 100,000,000,000 tiny little buildings that looked like a bunch of legos! My first thought was why are we only staying 5 days when the city would take 20 days to see everything?

A couple of  minutes later we landed at the airport. I thought that the airports size fit the city. Then we got off the plane and got our luggage and caught a taxi to our apartment. The ride was about 20 minutes  long. We were there but we couldn't find our apartment so my mom called the lady who owned it and she came down and showed is it. It was really cool and modern.

Our apartment that we rented...super awesome!

I hope everyone is okay. See everybody soon.     -Jaden
