Yesterday, on World Wish Day, I got my wish for a great last day in Barcelona. Now I wish to have a safe flight home to return to family and work that I love.
Who wishes to see today’s images?

On Thank You Thursday, I wish to thank all who are here for this daily blog, including YOU!
As my time in Barcelona is winding toward a close, I am choosing to spend time with personal heroes, including amazing architect Antoni Gaudí and friends old and new.
Can you see heroes in my images for today?
.
On World Wish Day I hope that all my heroes get their wishes met in this world. .
Here’s a YouTube video about Barcelona’s hero Gaudí:

Thanks to all my heroes, including YOU!
Wherever you are and whomever you’re with, you’re going to have moods.
That’s why I took this picture yesterday in Madrid before we got on a train back to Barcelona.
.
While we might want to be in good moods all the time (especially when we’re on a hard-earned vacation), that’s pretty much impossible.
So let’s embrace all the moods we’re having and be open to allowing new ones in.
What moods do you see in my images for today?

As always, blogging first thing in the morning resets my moods for the day ahead.
Thanks to everyone who helps me deal with moods, including YOU!
What do you like to do for fun?
For fun, I like to travel, spend time with those I love, explore new places, listen to (and create) music, eat yummy food, enjoy great art and architecture, hang around with cats, notice coincidences, take pictures, and (of course!) blog.
.
On Tell a Story Day, I hope my pictures here tell a story of a very fun day spent with friends at Madrid’s Prado Museum.
.
Thanks to all who help me have fun, including YOU!
Yesterday, we visited the beeeooootiful town of Segovia, Spain. Janet wasn’t feeling well and missed the trip, so this blog post is especially for her (and, of course, for you).
What are your impressions of our day in Segovia?
.
After that great day in Segovia, it’s time for me to get organized, hug my friends, and go to the Prado.
Thanks to all who joined me in this trip to Segovia, including YOU!
“Let’s explore” (which could be my motto) is something I saw yesterday at the Madrid train station.
.
Let’s explore the trip from Barcelona to our hotel in a mall near Madrid, with this daily blogger as your guide.

Finally, let’s explore my gratitude for all who help me explore through this blog, including YOU!
Today, we’re leaving beautiful Barcelona for a few days in Madrid. Because I love it so much here, I’m glad we’ll be returning to Barcelona before we fly back to the USA.
I hope today’s images encourage you to to visit Barcelona.

I hope you enjoyed these images from beautiful Barcelona. See you tomorrow from Madrid and thanks for being here, now!
Because I knew we were going to the Dali Museum yesterday, EVERYTHING seemed surreal.

Because we love this place, I’m sharing this photo I took in the gift shop of Barcelona’s Sagrada Família.

Because we love this place, many of us hope that Earth Day 2026 will remind people to take good care of our home.
Because we love this place of blogging, I am going to share many images of places I love today.
Because we love this place, we’ll get through our current reality together.

Thanks to all who are here for the places I love, including YOU!
Today’s Daily Bitch Calendar is about phoning it in.
.
Because I’m in Barcelona and left my laptop at home, I am totally phoning it in when I blog, take photos, and connect with my husband and cats back home.
And regarding the usual meaning of that phrase …
.
… while I’ll never be phoning it in that way, I would like to reduce my usual perfectionism and worry-based efforts while maintaining my enthusiasm and engagement.
It’s time for me to be phoning it in with my images for today.
.
Here’s what I find when I search for “phoning it in” on YouTube:
.
I look forward to people phoning it in with their comments, below.
Thanks to all who are here for this phoning-it-in post, including YOU!
