The next day with left Chateauneuf Du Pape and took a train to Barcelona. The Cardosos left early but we decided to go later. We had to go on 3 trains. The first one was only 5 minutes, the second one was 30 minutes, and the last one was 2-3 hours. When we got to Barcelona, we took a taxi to our hotel. Then we walked around and went to the Picasso Museum. We also saw a famous church. Then we went to a cool tapas restaurant. We had cheese, tuna, potatoes and a sandwich and bread. It was delicious. Then we went back to the hotel.
The next day we went to one of Gaudi's creations (
Casa Batllo). It was a house, but it wasn't just an ordinary house. It was full of curved shapes and more. The bad thing was that we had to wait 2 hours to get inside. But when we did, we were given these table things. The table showed what the room looked like with furniture. So like in the dining room had a carpet and a table. The house had lots of rooms. The house was very cool. After that, we
went to lunch. Then we went to another one of Gaudi's creations (
La Pedrera). Inside, there wasn't much fun, but on the rro it was really cool There was one structure that looked like 4 hears. THen we went to a famous church designed by Gaudi (
Sagrada Familia). We could not go in because the tickets were sold out. So we could only go to the crypt. In the crypt, Gaudi's coffin was there.
Next we went to a park (
Park Guell). We went to the top and saw a good view of the city. Then we tried to go to another part of the park, but we could not go in. Then we went to the room and showered. Next we went to the room and showered. Next, we met up with the Cardosos to eat. We ate Paella. Then we went to the room and slept.
The next day, me and my dad went to Camp Nou, the Barcelona stadium, my favorite team with my favorite player, Neymar. Inside the stadium, there were trophies and old soccer balls and videos of the best goals. After the room with those things, we went
down to the field. It was huge!. We couldn't go onto the field, but went very close to it. Then we went towards the locker room. We saw where they get massages, showers and have a jacuzzi. Next we went to where the TV announcers sit. It is a really big room.
Then we went to another Tapas restaurant. We got potatoes, ribs, chips and gaucomole and more. Then we went to a food market (
Mercat de la Boqueria). There was a lot of things, from fish to juice. Then we walked around Las Ramblas. Las Ramblas has a lot of street performers, art, and stores. It's really fun walking because if you give money to the street performers, they do something. After Las Ramblas, we went to another tapas restaurant and had paella, ribs, steak and bread. For dessert there was a frozen lemonade with cream. It was delicious. Then we went to the hotel and slept.
The next morning we were sadly leaving. We took a plane to Madrid, then a plane to Boston, then a plane to Miami. I had a good time on this trip! I hope we
can go back again soon.
