Jet lag!
Frankfurt airport

Cabodachi!

No? Why not?

La Bouqueria (market), Las Ramblas

Churros con chocolate at El Corte Ingles

You gotta read the guidebook!

This is a weird, sour fruit shake! But what a pretty color. It kind of tastes like a coconut snowball dipped in a pickling agent.

Merritt is very jet lagged!

Not even the amazing candy bar can cheer him.

Okay, now he is doing better back at the hotel.

Is this really our Cabodachi?
