We recently returned from a week in Barcelona. We had a great time and what a fantastic city! The week didn’t start off so well though. When we arrived at the Barcelona airport we called the owner of the appartment we had rented only to learn that it had been double booked! The rental agency worked hard to find us another place for the week. It turned out to be a dump. The only heat were two plug-in rediators, the hot water didn’t work, the bed sheets stank and the neighborhood sucked. So the next day we found an internet cafe, logged on to one of those “last-minute-hotels.com” sites and booked a suite in a 5 star hotel (at a pretty good price). We did get our money back for the crappy appartment too.
One
of the coolest parts of the city is Las Ramblas, a street through the heart of the old city. It is packed with street performers, shops and weirdos (besides us).
We spent New Years Eve at our hotel having a very nice din
ner. We capped off the year by setting our table on fire with som
e of the confetti we were given!
