SPOILER ALERT: this trip is not going very well. I’m actually pretty cranky and upset, so I won’t spend much time except to let you know that we are in Barcelona and we are safe and fine. The bummer is that our luggage did not make it to Barcelona with us. We were told it would be on the next flight from Paris and would be delivered to our hotel today. It is now nearly 9 PM and the luggage has not yet arrived. The lost luggage desk at the airport is only open from 9 AM to 5:30 PM. At 5:30, we were happily eating tapas and drinking a beer, blessedly ignorant of the fact the desk was closing and our bags hadn’t arrived at the hotel.
The one thing I tell everyone to do is the thing I did NOT do: pack a set of clothes in your carry on. Yep, I am stuck with the clothes I was wearing yesterday morning. MT is freaking out that we are going to have to buy new suitcases and clothes tomorrow, first thing. The first thing I’m going to do is call Lost Luggage at the airport and find out where the hell my clothes are!
On the upside, Barcelona is still Barcelona and it’s awesome.
Hopefully tomorrow I will write happier words.

Well, that sucks. I hope everything gets worked out in the AM. If you do buy anything you need that was in your bags, keep the receipts so you can be reimbursed.
