Hi Jacquie - yes we would highly recommend it. It wasn’t in the plan but just happened to walk by and thought we should at least poke our nose in to check it out. Happened to be free on Sunday -bonus!

Someday I’ll get back to Barcelona and I’ve now added the Maritime Museum to my list of places to visit.

It really is an amazing city. We plan to take the bikes out today. Lots and lots of bike lanes around us.

We are really enjoying Barcelona. We plan to tackle a bit by bike this morning.

Wouldn’t that be fun! Do you think we could find a cinnamon brioche?

It’s an amazing city, alright. We’re looking forward to going back next spring, if that plan comes through for us. And good decision to take the Cercanías to Blanes!

Cute! Monks parakeets I think, but they look like a pair of lovebirds.

What an amazing day! Hey, we are coming through Barcelona in late October on our way from France to Valencia in early November. Maybe a meet up can happen?

We are terrified of it too!

You made it! And with good humor through all the bumps. Now the fun starts. Looking forward to watching your journey.

Glad that you have arrived and are getting settled. Hope the jet lag isn't too painful. Enjoy exploring the sights and scenes of Barcelona!

Don't think Gerry would step foot in that elevator after his experience in Rome!

With you patrolling back and forth on that coast there is a chance we can meet up. Let's watch each other's blogs, although we can actually tell you now where we'll be each night into November.

Hi Kathleen. Thanks for the well-wishes. As a fellow teacher, you know how crazy the job can be. My grade 6/7 group this year is wonderful. Last year's group, however, was a different story. Have a great tour!

It is, isn’t it!!
