Today was really nice. The weather was gorgeous (and warm) and I just had a good time.
We checked out of our lame hotel and took the Metro into the main area - Placa Catalunya/La Rambla. La Rambla is a BIG street, so we figured we could find something. We are staying off the main street in the Hostal Rembrant. It only costs 35 euro a night, and it's better than the last place -- we even have a small balcony!
After dumping our stuff off we went and had lunch at Les Quinze Nites - a nice restaurant where we split Paella. It was really good. The Sangria we had was alright, but it hit me very quickly 😉
Then we took the Metro up a bit and walked to Parc Guell. It was pretty awesome. It was designed to be a place to live, but now it's just a public park. Gaudi designed it, and the buildings/structures were neat and beautiful. It also gave us a nice view of the city (from the high points). I'm really glad we went. We came back and rested and then went to see Gaudi's "La Sagrada Familia." It was really
cool to see it all lit up at night. It's such a huge building. Very impressive.
Tomorrow we are going to Figures to the Dali Museum. I'm super excited!!
