Is this a correct translation...thanks -

A few weeks ago I went on vacation with my parents and we flew to Barcelona and stayed for the weekend. The weather was great, something that I prefer since I hate winter. We visited friends who live there and they cooked for us every evening. I found it was wonderful being able to taste proper Spanish food.

Hace unas semanas fui de vacaciones con mis padres y volamos a Barcelona y nos quedamos el fin de semana. El tiempo fue estupendo, cosa que prefiero ya que odio el invierno. También, visitamos a unos amigos que viven allí y cocinaron la cena para nosotros. Me pareció una maravilla poder degustar una buena comida española.

Visitamos a unos amigos que viven allí y (independent clause follows, so it would be good to include the subject) ('cocinar' can take an indirect object in addition to a direct object - missing indirect object pronoun goes here) cocinaron la (an indefinite article may sound better) cena para nosotros (see earlier note about a missing indirect object pronoun - omit the prepositional phrase). Me pareció una maravilla poder degustar una buena comida española.I moved your request for a translation to the 'Practice & Homework' forum.
