My brother in law is from Barcelona. Met my late sister when he was an exchange student to our high school in 1957. They married in 1961,lived in Spain for a couple of years,then moved to the States. His furniture import business kept him traveling for 6 months out of the year,so he did visit Spain frequently over the years.
All this to say he is visiting Barcelona right now-at 87 years old! I was shocked when he made a visit last year,but saw on FB that he went again two weeks ago! Niece took a pic of him at the airport and judging by the amount of luggage he took,it looks like he plans on a long visit. Seeing the pics he`s been posting,he`s having a great time. He still has several family members there.
