I keep forgetting I'm STUDYING abroad.. so I have class and homework and no energy to do adventurous things. This weekend we have a mandatory trip to Costa Brava with IES, so that should be fun. For now, here are some pictures that I stole from Katherine. I don't have a camera here (good job Grace) but I'm with that broad 24/7 so any pictures she takes I will claim as my own. Yesterday we attempted to be tourists and visit some of the "sights" close to the Rambla. There was a cathedral and a music hall... neither of which we could find among the tiny winding streets of the Old City, so we just got lost in Las Ramblas. Aka Tourist Central. Its the old part of the city, where all the roads are skinny and buildings are built on top of each other. It is also the best place to buy cheap Barcelona-themed crap like magnets and knock-off FC Barcelona jerseys, to over-pay for a meal, and to possibly get pick pocketed. Its great. We stumbled upon a famous market (as shown in the pictures), so I guess that was fun. After an hour or two though we got exhausted by the crowds and headed home for siesta. We spent the evening at a local bar with some ladies and their British friends, oh and we met a man with roses... Also shown in the pictures. God love him.
Feast your eyes on some random Barca nonsense. Enjoi.
