For this weeks postcard installment I figured I would stay in Europe just move from Münich to Barcelona.

This post card dates from 1998 and was sent to us by Amanda when she was on her trip to Europe with a couple of her friends.  I can’t remember if it was her senior year of high school or the year before but Jen was just about beside herself when she found out that Amanda was going to be allowed to prance around Europe with a couple of similarly aged friends all by themselves without an adult chaperon.

This postcard is a picture of the Fountains at Montjuïc.  They were built in 1929 for the World’s Fair and according to the Barcelona tourist guide, “The magic fountain is a spectacular display of colour, light, motion, music and water acrobatics – if you mix all these elements together in just the right combinations, you end up with pure magic! The magic fountain is a “must see” when you come to Barcelona and highly recommended.”

Amanda made it through her trip alright but I seem to remember something about her camera being stolen on the train at some point so I don’t think there were too many pictures of the trip.  Jen was able to to breath easier when she finally arrived back home.
