Spain Journal- March 3rd- Barcelona

Day 9- Barcelona

Today was a free day to explore Barcelona, to see what we may have missed. I went with a group of the girls to Las Ramblas again. I wanted to buy some art work to take home with me. I was able to find a wonderful painting of a Flamigo dancer and a Bull fighter. When we first arrived at La Ramblas, we were stopped at the stop light. For some reason I remember just listening for a moment. I noticed all the different languages being spoken. I hear German, Spanish, English, Catalane. Looking around you could tell that the this area was like a melting pot of different cultures. Each person lead a different life, no one was the same. But whatever it was, we all were there at La Ramblas to experince it together. After we spent sometime in Las Ramblas, we took the Tour Bus of Barcelona. It is a double decker bus with the top open so you can see everything from the top of the bus. It was fun, but I was not feeling well. So after the tour on the first bus, I went back to the hostel with Anne and Claira.
