So, as some of my friends know, I was in Barcelona for a couple weeks back in october, and up until that point I was doing a pretty good job of catching up with getting photos posted. Then of course everything went to hell, and so here we are almost december and I’m just now getting to this. Getting there involved a fairly late flight out of OKC, an even later flight out of Detroit, and an afternoon flight from Amsterdam. Airports are mostly boring, so no pictures of them this time, but one from the plane as we were looking out over the City and the ocean. I got to BCN, had a beer, and slept for 14 hours. The jaws of life couldn’t pry me from that bed. That morning, we got up and went to the market Boqueria, had a fairly decent breakfast, and set off in search of a local SIM card for my unlocked cell phone. Managed that, and then visited a cathedral (pictured) which was nice. Sorry, I didn’t take down place names or details; I’m not that kind of photographer (although if someone had been paying me to do travel photography of BCN, I probably would have kept better notes).

The highlight of the support meetup this time was easily the karaoke night; the last meetup it was appearently fairly epic, but I slept through it. I was glad that we set it up again; I even sang. A lot of pictures this time. photo of me coutesy the inimitable “@jessicaspacekat”:http://twitter.com/jessicaspacekat, who I handed my camera just before taking the stage.

I got to SF in the morning, like I always do, and ended up wandering around a bit looking for the wrong café; there are two places in SF called “Justine’s,” one in a hotel, and one at the top of a really big hill. This is SF, where the hills really are fairly huge and daunting. Getting to the wrong one involved, of course, walking up the hill (with luggage) to find that I was in the wrong place. That wasn’t really a big deal though. I made it to the hotel late enough to check in, and did that; met with some of the co-workers for burgers, after which there was considerable drinking. This is just the best team. A bunch of brilliant, hard working dudes. Over the next couple days, I’m going to be doing some changes to the site; nothing huge, just some extra links to a portfolio bit that I’m working on, and an email link.

Going west involved an airplane. The sun was coming up as the plane was taking off, and since we were going west fairly quickly, golden hour lasted through most of the flight. I got these shooting out the window of the plane; really great light.

Or a week… something like that. Things happened, laundry was done, and then I took off again. I got to say, “I’ll see you in Barcelona.” Then I went west for a bit.
