barcelona - day 1
last tuesday evening
my friend mary
and
i
jetted across the ocean
to
the beautiful city of barcelona
we arrived early wednesday morning
hopped off at the last stop
walked a short distance
to
we'd rented a lovely airbnb apartment
dropped our bags
grabbed our cameras
headed out
to
see the neighborhood
one of our priorities
was
to find a supermarcat
nope
thats not a typo
thats spanish for supermarket
we actually didnt find it
till it was late
we were pretty hungry and tired by then
but
we'd had a great first day
i am going to let the photos tell the story
wandering along
peeking into
what look like
alleys
but are in fact
side streets
passing a huge cathedral
loving the plaça art
mercado de santa caterina
is
one of many large food markets in barcelona
most of which have restaurants within
like
santa catarina cuines
after lunch
refreshed
we walked on
parc de la ciutadella
where the
arc de triomf
was built as the entrance
for the 1888
barcelona world's fair
this overlooks a lake
in
the
parc de la ciutadella
more art
i think 'he' was looking out over the parc
