Paris & Barcelona

2006 & 2018 ... Mom had a work trip to Paris and Dad invited himself to join.  We are so grateful for Gma, Gpa, Popo and Uncle Michael we came over to stay with us - we got pretty spoiled as we didn't have to do laundry or cook.  

Their favorite dish in Paris - foie gras ravioli 

Sightseeing around the magical city of Paris 

Paris Google office - like most offices so fun and yummy! 
Off to a yummy start in Barcelona at their food market
