First, one must locate an internet cafe. In most cities, internet cafes are as plentiful as pasta in Italy, but in others (the less touristy cities), it seems like there are none because they've gone out of business since everyone seems to have their own computer these days.
Second, when you do find an internet cafe, sometimes the prices are as high as six euros an hour. This is outrageous considering we paid only one ...
... of Barcelona - and a major tourist site. We walked down the long road and were hit with tons of people - you could hear multiple languages being spoken, different kinds of dress - it was just a pool of different people. We saw all of the flower stands that we'd heard about, along with the pet stores. People selling birds, hamsters and other small animals. Weird. We walked all the way down to Placa Catalunya, one of the major city squares. Saw a Michael Jackson ...
Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain and Canary Islands jenmankarious... the only vegetarian bear in the entire world. It took us about 15 minutes for us to convince to come out of its cage and then it sat right down in front us with an expression that said are you happy now! Bobby fed it an assortment of local weeds and made it happy. (this bear was in a cage) Today Jordi´s dad gave us a tour of Barcelona and took us out to a great lunch. And now we are enjoying our last night ...
Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain and Canary Islands herechickey... hot dogs and sandwiches. The first couple of days we ate at the Garden Café. The Garden Café is really nice. They have an outside section that's to die for. Right now the ship is under a GI surveillance. GI is short for Gastro Intestinal infection. This means some guest got off at some port in Africa, ate something that our systems didn't recognize so now there bodies are purging everything out, meaning they are ...
Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain and Canary Islands michaeldexter... hanging out the back of their pants, and around their necks. Watching people pulling out their wallets and counting money right in the middles of the street. I knew for a fact that these people never get hit, the stupid ones that are so obvious never have anything stolen from them. Its the ones that keep on edge and put all the precaustions into effect. I was one of those people, but I knew that these guys weren´t getting anything. I watched about 4 times on my time ...
Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain and Canary Islands mike81... and will be good resources for us. Plus we asked Juan to speak to us only in Spanish so we can practice. Their apartment is only 6 blocks away from my office and right near a metro station. So this will give us time to look for our own place before July. So enough about us - what about Barcelona! Well, we had a chance to do some exploring on the weekend but there is still so much to do and see. We keep walking by all these cool ...

Barcelona, Spain krystiemclellan... fruit. its great stuff. and we had about 5 kilos of it. seriously. and pavlova. the christmas pudding i made is being saved for tomorrow. simply because we could not physically eat any more food. on top of all this was the copious amounts of cheap and amazing spanish vino (wine)! we had secret santa going, so everyone got a present. we even had a christmas tree, until the cheap piece of rubbish collapsed on the table in the middle of dessert, causing ...
Barcelona, Spain tarah51June 14 (Val) We had all decided that second class seats were fine for the overnight train to Barcelona, but there were none available so we were forced into first class seats. Boy were we thankful for that!! We had seats that folded down so we could all lie across them (along with the other two people in the cabin). We used our pillows and blankets and we had a pretty good nights sleep. We arrived in Barcelona to a beautiful ...
Barcelona, Spain tucker... was all dark and really nice and cool (temp), sucked going back outside again but we helped ourselves get over it by having some gelato :) third day was the biking day, so we caught the bus out to St Remy. the da was a bit overcast which we thuoght would be perfect for cycling. We road to Glanum which was an old ancient town. It started raining so we road back to the town for lunch (down hill, yay!) to wait it out until our 2 hour ride. The ...
