Barcelona

We took an overnight train from Paris to Barcelona on Monday night. It wasn't too bad, but trying to squeeze four people each with their two months of Rome luggage was a bit too close to Tetris for my taste.

We arrived, ate at a little restaurant across the street from our house (11.5 E for a three-course meal, Barcelona is much cheaper than Paris) and settled down to rest for a little bit. We planned out what we were going to do today and met up with our friend Ashley, who has been staying in the city for about a week now. She took us on a tour down to the waterfront, where we enjoyed a fine meal (her last in Europe as she's flying back tomorrow).

Today we have quite an itinerary planned: Barcelona Pavilion, Casa Mila, Casa Batllo, La Sagrada Familia, and a Picasso Museum. This should be exciting.
