Getting ready to visit Park Güell
Our day started off at 7:30am on the coach heading to Park Güel - one of the most famous sights of Barcelona - according to our “Barcelona” tour guid. The whole group was tired and groggy but the views were worth it. When we arrived, our tour guide, Elena, provided us with croissants and juice boxes to hold us off till breakfast. The park was incredible! We were given the history of the park and more insight into Gaudí’s artistic life and tragic death. When we got back to the hotel, everyone stocked up on breakfast ready for the day ahead. We boarded the coach at around 11:00am to meet the truck and driver in order to set up our instruments for the evening performance. We set our focus on the performance that afternoon, and how the offload and set-up of the instruments would play out. The performance was held at a concert hall in Barcelona. Once all of the instruments were in their places, we had a quick rehearsal and then parted for lunch at around 2:30pm. Half of the group went for burgers and the other half went for pasta. During lunch, we realized that this would be the

last performance of our 2019 tour. When we got back to the University, we got changed into our uniforms (some people took a quick power nap) and we got ready for our emotional last performance in Spain. Our music was well received and the audience was very enthusiastic. There were some tears shed during some songs, but we got it together and finished off strong. After the performance (and several encores) we packed the instruments to get them ready to ship back to Canada. When we got back to the hotel, it was time to wind down. As the day came to an end, we ate together as a group in the hotel lobby eating some unique pizza, thanks to Adisa, Tammy and Jamie, said our good nights, then went to bed. Day 10 of TASSO’s trip to Spain was full of history and emotions.
