Well, we finally reached Barcelona around ten AM local time... a second bout of volcanic ash from Iceland started drifting south over continental Europe on Thursday, closing the Barcelona airport for most of Saturday! We were really concerned when we got to Philadelphia and we were told the airport here was closed, but it reopened just in time for us to get out (only an hour-and-a-half delay, not too bad!) The flight took nine hours as opposed to the usual seven so the pilots could navigate around the ash cloud, but we don´t mind... let the two-week celebration begin!
