22nd June 2013
Today we caught the bus in to Barcelona and did a walking tour out of the lonely planet book. We walked down las Ramblas as the operahouse the we walked further along to the food market which was buzzing with little bars round the edge and produce market (fish and vegetables) .We then walked further down las Ramblas and saw Gaudi house, one of his early works, we crossed the road to a plaza with two street lights believed to be Gaudi's first works. Then we continued to the gothic area with Roman wall and cathedral . We then made our way back to the market for a couple of drinks before heading for the Hard Rock Cafe were we had a bite to eat and cocktail. We met a nice Canadian couple Chris & Cal who were staying in Barcelona before heading to Dublin.Did a bit of shopping then caught the bus back to the site, by which time the site was filling up with Spanish as there was a local fiesta on the 23rd.
