    This was well worth the trip. There is an extensive collection of Picasso's work, especially from the time he called Barcelona home. I highly recommend the museum, even to those that may not be fans of Picasso.

    Tip: Buy the guidebook in the gift shop on the ground floor before visiting the collections upstairs.

    If you're a culture vulture, set some quality time for this. The exhibition has a few pieces from each period, mostly the Period.
    My favourite is "El Divan", it makes me chuckle every time. http://www.bcn.cat/museupicasso/ca/colleccio/mpb4-267.html

    Day 3: Barri Gotic, El Born and Camp Nou

    First place we visited was Museu Picasso in El Born. This way we avoided the crowds and we enjoyed the paintings of Picasso literally on our own. The museum hosts paintings during the blue and pink period of creation of the artist. If its modernism and art you're looking for, Barcelona is the place!

    The rest of the morning was dedicated to …

    The museum has one of the most extensive collections of his art. It is one of the most popular and most visited museums in Barcelona. The museum is housed in five adjoining medieval …

    At last, the Picasso Museum

    We did the English tour of the Picasso Museum, even though it is in the same street as our apartment we had not been inside.

    The guide was fabulous, learnt a lot about Picasso and his development as a painter from a very young age to his now renowned style. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. One of the most interesting of his artworks was a huge …

    When I woke up this morning it was raining. That is the first precipitation we have had in many, many months. It was coming down fairly hard. I got myself ready, finished packing, and left the house to meet my neighbor for a ride to work. When I arrived at his car I was surprised to see it covered in snow. The rain had switched to snow. Luckily it …
