London - July 24, 2009

Today was our transition day - Katie flew back to the U.S., we packed, did some last minute shopping in Knightsbridge and then headed to Gatwick for our evening flight to Barcelona. Quite an effort to get to Gatwick and when we got there, we found out that our flight was significantly delayed due to weather and an incident on the runway at Gatwick. We took off about 3 hours late, arriving at the Hotel Arts in Barcelona around 11 pm local time. Our hotel was right on the beach, a bit outside the main part of town.
