So after our stint at the beach and our bite to eat we were a bit tired and just wanted to get back to the hotel, wash up and rest a bit. After all, spending all day at the beach is not that easy, but we are troopers who will indulge this tragedy for all […]

Waking up was not as rough this morning, even after our late night of reading. We got off to an early start because we wanted to go to La Pedrera before it got busy with long lines of tourists. La Pedrera is another of Gaudi’s work of art that was completed in 1910. It has […]

We decided to take a different path then our normal route and wound up on La Ramba. La Ramba is a famous street that cuts down the middle of Barcelona. Many of the streets have middle walkways that are nice from strolling.  Here we walked shoulder to shoulder with what seemed to be the entire […]

The tour continued to Montjuic Park, which is a large park that was first created in 1929 for the International Exhibition. Shortly after its creation the park fell into general disuse and became a synonymous with decline.  As Manuel would say, it became quite dodgy. The park was the main site of the 1992 Olympics […]

For some reason when we came home the night before we thought it would be a good idea to give the wake-up call system another try. The phone rang and 7:30, Jared answered it and we both rolled over and went back to bed. We dozed until 10:00, maybe it was jet leg finally setting […]

After talking to Manuel again and getting some suggestions for dinner we headed to a restaurant near our hotel. He started to suggest some local bars but he was afraid that they were in a “dodgy” part of town, and redirected us to some near the restaurant. One the way we passed a restaurant that […]

We decided to finish up the green route of our two-day tour pass as well as scope out some possible prospects for dinner one evening. What we found was a beach that was in the city of Barcelona. This beach unlike the one we found outside the city was about 40 deep with sunbathers. We […]

After the church we stopped at another one of Gaudi’s masterpieces called Parc Guell. This park overlooks Barcelona and provides numerous breathtaking views in every direction you look. This place also happens to be where Gaudi built his home. If your going to design all of Barcelona then why not built your home in the […]

Good thing Tina is used to getting up at 4:30 in the morning because our wake up call never called. We enjoyed a light breakfast at the hotel; there was a nice spread of meats, croissants, breads and pastries. We grabbed some fruit incase we got a little hungry later. Off we went map in […]

After our trek to the Goth section and so so dinner, we were looking for a pick me up, and that is exactly what we got. The fountain show at Font Magica was unlike any other we have seen; now your probably saying what other fountain show have you guys seen, but we did see […]
