Hello!!
So I have just arrived home from Barcelona.. well on Sunday
and the holiday blues are kicking in. However writing this post will help me
relive the laughs that I had on my trip.
So we had an early flight on Thursday and arrived in
Barcelona at our hotel at around 11.30 am so a lot of the day to play with. The
hotel was gorgeous however I didn't take any picture of it, so these are
pictures from the internet. It was a fantastic hotel and would seriously
recommend it!
The weather wasn’t brilliant however so we wore coats most
the time, managed to wear shorts once. We hired bikes on the Friday which was
lovely cycling along the beach front then chilled by the beach, however you get
a lot of people coming up to you asking if you want to buy certain thing
(draining).
We were also meant to go to the Olympic park however got lost of route and had already walked 10.5 miles by this point so we headed back to get showered and headed out for the evening.

We ate gorgeous tapas and Potato Barvas such a weird concept
but delicious. They were potatoes in like a creamy spicy sauce.
One thing I was shocked about in Barcelona is the little amount of cocktail bars and when we found somewhere that sold them, it was a very restricted choice. So we stuck to wine… not complaining!

We ended up going to La Rambla and walked around there and had some delicious
pizza and ice cream (the picture doesn't give it justice).
Then we had a our one last boozy night which we were meant to go to the magic fountains however we got lost on the metro and had to get a taxi back to the hotel. However we watched the fountains on YouTube (not the same experience but still... ) Then the next morning it was home time. Overall I would definitely recommend going to Barcelona, even though we didn't see too many sights, the atmosphere was lovely.
Have you been to Barcelona? Would you like to go? Do you like potato barvas?
Lots of Love,
