Buenos Dias Family and Friends,
Ten days into Mallorca and we could stay another twenty.We are thinking about living here. Today we found a beautiful house that would fit us perfectly and about ten other people.  Everything is here that we would need, except all of you.  Aura has finished all of her shopping but Logan is still trying to find the perfect meal. The beaches have been great, we can actually swim in the ocean without a full wetsuit. Maybe, just maybe, Logan would take up the "yo bra, hang ten, dude" world of surfing if the water was this warm. We have noticed over the travels that people are not trying to be rude but they just have to talk really loud to speak their language. As with other places we have been, the dogs are a part of the community just like anybody else. They walk around in the morning like they ended up crashin out at their friends house and are in a hurry to get home before breakfast. The climbing continues to be good but this style is very reliant on the seas. Yesterday Logan climbed with a few guys on a wall called the "Diablo" near the end of the day and was surrounded by fairly turbulent water. Its based around keeping an eye on one another and the ocean. Speaking the same language is not a requirement. Aura has been kicken butt on her tan. She lays out every chance she gets, which is every day, and soaks up this intense sun. I mean you can walk outside for a couple hours and you are feelin it. The pickled stuff here is great. Pickled olives, seaweed, onions, beans, peppers and of course pickled people. Soon we will be heading home and have to endure that weird overseas flight. Gaining time(that we lost), breathing the same air as a couple hundred other people for hours, eating what looks like leftover tv dinners and then waiting for my check in baggage while watching animals come rolling by in little tiny weeny boxes. Juna, I will do my best to never do that to you. I think we are bringing back twice as much stuff as we came with. Who could help it with so much cool stuff that we could never find at home and having Aura along. This trip has been one of the best, and we searched for a way to up the anty next summer. I know you all may think we are rushing into things, but we have decided to tie the knot. So next summer you had better get ready for a PARTY with a VERY eclectic group of folks. Yes moms we are going to get hitched, but not because we are pregnant. We really want to see what happens when we get all our family and friends in the same place. Love Ya, Aura and Logan
