Espana Noche Dos
Wow, Barcelona is great. We all slept in today (that is putting it as mildly as I could). I woke up around 1:30pm and the last to wake up clocked in around 4:30pm. So we all got ready in our good time and somewhere around 5:30 or 6pm we wandered out on the town. We walked to the City Park and checked out the people walking around, took some photos, and then we headed over to the Born district to find the Picasso Museum but before we got there we found some street performers (listening to the CD as I write this), then we wondered into the Iglesia Santa Maria del Mar. Evidently Saint Mary liked the seaside. Then we stopped for some Tappas at a nice little outdoor joint. While Bill, Linda, and Ginny waited for a free table, I ran around the district looking for a digital memory card and a sim card for my cell phone. I got to see a bit of the city but not much, mostly I worked up a sweat (the weather is beautiful but just a bit humid). I took plenty of pictures, some of which I will post at some point here. Found a place to rent a bicycle and generally we all had a good time. I'm really happy that we came here. It exceeds expectations, even though when Ginny and I sat in the park around the corner tonight (around 10:30pm) a woman came up to us and warned that I shouldn't sit with my back pack and camera sitting out. She told us someone would come by and swipe it. So much for me trying to look dangerous and threatening, ha. Hasta Manana
