Dear Erin…I found Kefir…

Dear Erin,

I found Kefir! By the way, thank you guys for helping me move all my boxes to my sisters house. You and Ryan are amazing friends! I was so glad I got to see you guys before I left. I loved my card. I loved the inscription on the front, “The sun does not shine on us, it shines from within us.” That was just what I needed before my trip. I love it! glued it into my travel book.

Oh yes I was writing to tell you about the Kefir I found. I was walking down Deputacio Street in Barcelona just whistling to the ba beat beat of the sun and I saw some very attractive looking apples in a gourment type store window. I was really quite hungry and headed back to my hostel so I thought might as well stop and over pay for one apple. As always “looks are decieving” this store was actually very well priced. And what do you know standing right next to the most beautiful red apples was some gorgeously packaged Kefir! Complete with the class jar, gingam printed cap and fruit at the bottom of the jar! Heaven!

So I go to pay for my apples, kefir, lemons and water and the boy who rings me up is just too cute to forget so I ask him in Spanish, ¨Sacar un photo con mi kefir?” His boss laughs as I set up the photo session from the other end of the counter, moving the bags on the counter and the items around.

I have been so impressed by how many fresh open fruit and vegetable stands there are here. One on just about every other block. It´s like their fruit stands are the equivalent to our gas stations. You would love it! So there you have it I have Spain, the sun and probiotics. Life and travels are good!

Love you!
