I cant believe its my third day in Barcelona. Time has passed so quickly. The last few days has been filled with (lots) of walking, shopping, sight´seeing, and eating. We have already fallen into the Spanish lifestyle of resting mid'day and eating late. Barcelona is seriously a shopping mecca. There are shops all around: underground in the metro (there is a very efficient underground train system), along dozens and dozens of alleys (some so narrow, it wouldnt fit a car), along main streets such as La Rambla (the few names I remember). The architecture is amazing. I have taken already 100 plus photos over the last few days. Antoni Gandi is THE architect of Barcelona. All the tourist sites we have visited is somehow linked to this man. What else, oh, the food. Ah tapas. I can live off this stuff, seriously. Its great for me since I like having a variety of food. Yet to try seafood paella, but I am betting on good paella down south.

We are staying in this Spanish style apartment: self-catering because I insisted. I want this trip to sort of be like a home-away-home, as opposed to staying in hotels. Its nice, because there is a kitchen, living room, bedroom, dining area etc. We also have a balcony that looks over the alley, just like in those movies, so when you look out, you see neighbors balconies draped with clothes and sheets.

Shall write in here later.

Love always
