Barcelona, Day 3: Wanderings

Samstag, 13 April

Buenas dias, Barcelona!






Wandered to the Port Olympia beach, but liked the nearby parks best:


 Then wandered La Boqueria's impressive collection of goods:


At long last, I found it: the infamous "Teta de Mona" (Boob of Nun).
Time for the Running Bean Guided Tour of the Gothic District (for free!):


Perfect timing, Mr. Classy Biker.

Herro, there.



On these said steps, Columbus presented gifts from the New World to the Queen. So they say.

The smallest and the largest croissant I have ever seen.
I next head off to tour the Music Palace, through this lovely Triumphal Arch:




Arabic inspired.

I love how these musician muses are sculpted on top, and mosaics on the bottom.

 And then I wandered:

Interesting choice of grass cut?





 Time for a nice seafood filled dinner.
When they said "Paella Negra" they REALLY meant black.
