BARCELONA
-The airport is like a shopping mall
-not very impressed by the outside of the Camp Nou
-A woman helped us to get on the right side of the metro even though that meant she missed her train.
-La Rampla is a pretty neat gathering of tourists and all that. WE DIDN'T GET PICKPOCKETED!
-Horchatas at Bar del Pi. Baller.
-Saw Real Madrid play some beautiful one touch football on the TV today. They looked unstoppable.
-Mourinho is god.
-Walked down by the Mediterranean, really baller.
-Restaurant we wanted to go to was closed, found India street in the process.
-Went to a Mediterranean/Middle East place instead. Good food.
-Unlike some people, I love taking bus tours of the city to learn where everything is and what its story is. There was a beautiful french girl on the blue line. I melted in the hot Barcelona sun.
-Picasso Museum was cool. Science and Charity is pretty.
-Had Basque food at night. Their deserts are fantastic. Starting to get this hang of speaking Spanish to native Spanish speakers thing.
-La Sagrada Familia is so much cooler when you actually see it than the pictures. The detail and thought that Gaudi put into the building is incredible.
-La Casa Mila was pretty cool too. Gaudi is very unique.
I loved Montjuic. We climbed the hill, took the funicular, went the fort at the top. It was pretty awesome. We also went to the MNAC and Miro Foundation. That was sick as well.
I saw Lionel Messi score a hat trick and I saw David Villa make his Barca debut. That was pretty cool.
