Barcelona 2008 part 1 | La Rambla, Mercat de la Boqueria, Casa Batlló
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4
Christmas 2008. The plan was to goto Amsterdam. But due to lack of planning, the flights turned out to be too expensive. So we did the next best thing, find the cheapest tickets to any place in south europe. That’s how Satish and me ended up going to Barcelona.
From my trip to Japan earlier this year. I had learn a great deal from Olve. Stuff like how to plan the days, read the Lonely Planet book and how not to trust it. So after doing some research, wiki, google maps, google earth and a lot of print outs. We were all set, except we were not prepared for the weather forecast…rain for most of the time we were supposed to be in Barcelona. But it was too late…so we set off.

warming up the plane
landed in Barcelona…first impression…smelly

first lunch at La Fonda…first sangria
took a walk in the rain

the hostel was on the main street La Rambla
very touristy part of town
went to Mercat de la Boqueria…the local market
la rambla
they told me i was too cool for the ride…damn
started walking towards Casa Batlló
got there…luckily the queue was small and it started raining as soon as we got in…
lots of camera
