Hello from Barcelona
by:
Susanne Pacher
This is my 1st ever web log and IŽll have to be really brief since I only have simply about 11 minutes left at the Computer network cafe. I am sitting here at the Maremagnum buying mall in the port of Barcelona.
Theresa and I simply came back from our tour on the blue Tourer Bus. (20 Euros for 2 days). What a fabulous city!
Yesterday we had dinner in the Gothic Quarter and got serenaded by one musician / music group after another. And now the bus tour, beautiful weather, brilliant sunshine, simply about 28 degrees Celsious.
We started in the port area, snaked our way past the Casino, the Olympic Village, the Zoo, through the Gothic Quarter to the hussle and bustle of Plaza Catalunya. On
the way we had a quick peak at GaudiŽs masterpieces: Casa Battlo and La Pedrera. The we came across the middle part of the city, up to the hill of Montjuic wherever
we visited the Poble Espanyol (Spanish village), a beautiful 1929 replication of buildings from villages throughout Spain.
Then we passed the Olympic stadium, the Teleferic cablecar and came back down into the city wherever
we are simply starting to relax now in the harbour.
Tonight weŽll probably head up the Ramblas and check out several authentic City Nightlife.
