Oviedo, Espagne

We got back from Switzerland pretty late so we grabbed some Chinese food and hit the hay. Church was pretty good! I actually understood pretty much everything! Monday was a holiday so Brittney's branch was having a BBQ! They picked us up at 11 and we headed to this gorgeous park. I'm pretty sure they had like 100 kilos of meat! We had skipped breakfast, so by 2 when we everything was ready, we were starving! They gave us huge plates of meat, and poor Britt got 2 more pieces than I did. It was delicious though! One guy we were talking to thought I was married because I wear my CTR ring on my right hand, and apparently here it doesn't matter which hand it's on. When he found out I wasn't married he was like, "Why not! What are you waiting for?!" It was quite funny... We left just before it started raining. Spain was surprisingly cold and overcast for the two weeks I was there!

Water came forth from a rock...

Annecy, France

Brittney and I took a bus from Geneva to Annecy, where we had a fun time trying to find our hotel which happened to be quite far out of town. The next 3 days we spent enjoying the sights! Lake Annecy was gorgeous, and even though it was stormy weather, we loved it! They even had a Subway sandwich shop! All in all, great trip! On Saturday we went back to Geneva to catch a flight to Spain. We had breakfast in France, lunch in Switzerland, and dinner in Spain!

The Visitation Basilica

It was built in 1920 so it's more modern


Cute flower shop :)
