Hello Loyal Subjects,
Tis your traveling Queen speaking.
Barcelona has been wonderful. The hostel is way better than Madrid. I srtuck up a convo with a fellow American on our first day. We'll call him "Jason." Jason literally got in a fight on the subway, and cautioned us not to mess with thugs. (By the way, Claire, Jason called them homeboys. So there!) So we locked up our valueables at the hostel. I only carried my phone, since it takes better pictures than my digital camera, go figure. And the hostel lock box is free!
We walked down La Rambla to the harbor on a beautiful sunny day. There was a huge farmers market on that street. I was able to get some pineapple and it was delicious. That night we went to an Irish Pub with Jason and Shane from Ireland to watch FC Barcelona. It was really fun except for all the smoke. I had a BLT and some Guinness. I had forgotten how good bacon is.
On the agenda for tomorrow...We are going to head out to the olympic village to check that out and go to bed early, early train tomorrow.
Zat is all for now!

Why do we have to "call" him Jason? Is his name really "Jeff" or "Simon"? Oooooooh, don't blow his cover! Does the bacon taste the same there? They do have different pigs over there, right?
ReplyDeleteYour sarcasm is slowly killing me. -H
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask the same thing as your Mom...are we 'calling' him Jason because that's his name, or what? Wasn't going to mention the bacon and pigs however. What's with all the names, Victor, Roman, Jason? and Shane. Is there a rule that everyone has to travel in twos. Be sure and take pictures with your camera too because it takes pictures at a higher resolution then your phone. Is Maggie feeling better now? Waiting in anticipation for the next blog.
