Here we are, our last morning in Barcelona after 5 days of total chaos! It has been jam packed with unforgettable experiences. From La Rambla to the works of Guadi, Tapas, Sangria, the Picasso Museum, visits to the beach and a spanish guitar jam session, here are some highlights from our stay:
La Rambla
1 Mile Walk down this street is mere madness! By some bunnies, maybe a bird and glance at all the people dressed in costumes to earn a euro or two. Hustle and bustle like Times Square; can't do anything but embrace it.
La Boqueria (El Mercat)
A poem by Shira:
The intoxicating energy takes over all of my senses
I am under a spell, hypnotized by the sounds of commerce, transported to an art gallery of fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses, breads, spices and chocolates
I am under a spell, hypnotized by the sounds of commerce, transported to an art gallery of fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses, breads, spices and chocolates
Creating a rainbow so vibrant, I have no choice but to indulge in all that seems to be laid out on a platter, just for me
The Beach
Locals and tourists pack themselves on this man made beach smack dab in the heart of Barcelona. Vibrant with sand castles, domino competitions, biking, running, sunbathing (half naked) and of course eating and drinking.
Works of Gaudi
Our pictures do his architectural masterpieces no justice, but we tried!
Casa Batllo
Temple of Sagrada Familia from inside Park Guell
Tapas
Bite size snacks, 1.80 Euro each. Stand, eat, count the sticks and go on with your day.
Sangria
Best white sangria ever - cheers to that and to Barcelona!
