Christmas day this year was unique for me. Rather than be at home with family, opening gifts and whatnot, the day passed as any other would with a few exceptions. I think we finally woke up somewhere around noon (which has been sort of the norm for the past few weeks), had a lovely breakfast of toad in the hole (or egg in a basket if you're from that school of thought), and a delicious coffee/hot chocolate/whisky creation. Then, we set off to walk around a "deserted" Barcelona and take photos, only it was not very deserted. It was a pretty cloudy, windy day, which was just perfect. Upon arriving home from our excursion, we made a huge pot of black bean soup and had a quiet night: A very lovely day, indeed.
