Oasis Park Lloret de Mar

Day 3, 4<br><br>Day 3 I wasn't traveling at all, I was busy working, However on the forth day I managed to go to a town not far from Barcelona called Lloret de Mar. It is a new town located just near the seashore, with wonderful forests at the same time. There are a lot of hotels there for every type of traveler. <br><br ...

... rock and rocke&#8217;s cafe which is a hybrid Spanish coffee shop with bocadillos (Spanish sandwiches) and beer/espressos playing smooth jazz and 50&#8217;s rock, satellite tv playing the current euro football match (that&#8217;s soccer to we yanks/americanos) but for some strange reason the 49er game is playing right now! They make an interesting pizza called cruji coques (croo-jee coke-es), large squares that comes with a little medieval mallet with a ...

... I can improve! It´s weird starting from a really low base again, the same as with my spanish in Madrid. Time´s going quickly now, and I can´t believe my first week´s over already. <br><br>At the weekend I might go into Barcelona with some other trainees or maybe go swimming as there´s a pool in granollers. Got my first assignment to do as well, seems a bit tricky but I think I´ll be able to handle it. Anyway, I hope you´re all doing well!

At the Hotel Sidormes in Salt Kevin picked up a brochure on a large outlet shopping village situated north of Barcelona. As the wind had not abated in L'Escala, and in light of our previous success with the outlet shopping village in near Glastonbury we decided to head out to discover this village. It was about ¾ hour away, just off the main motorway, and looked very ...

... br><br>As if the Dali Museum wasn't cool enough, the next stop was two little villages on the Mediterranean coast called Portlligat and Cadaques. Dali lived in Portlligat and his house has since been turned into a museum, complete with big eggs on the roof (Dali was big on big eggs-they were all over the place at the Dali Museum). We drove up this tiny mountain road (which was interesting in a really big bus...) and as we were going over a hill, the ...

I tried to take a photo but only got one of the locals.....oh well<br><br>We then headed back to town to drop off the car...no real dramas other than v heavy traffic.<br><br>We then went on to the Sagrada Familia Cathedral - that was started in late 1800's and only has 25-30 ...

... tip). I walk to the beach, use a flight bag to cover it, lock it and use a special steel cord that I have to attach it to a parking chain, just below a bridge. Anyone with a sharp knife and intent could steal it. But, it is so large that it would be very obvious. I change clothes at the beach and spend the day walking around. <br><br>The highlight is a 12th-century walled town along the hill and the coastline. I walk along the top of the ...

... feel like i am touching the sun. We went back to the campsite bar hoping to further develop our representations. Unfortunately nothing was going on and we soon left. After this we bravely approached a group of girls (of which none of them i was interested in Tiff because you are amazing) on the beach but due to a lack of language skills ...

Very weird border town. The shops only sell booze, fags, tourist tack and pharmaceuticals. Buy some horrible tobacco and throw it away within an hour. Long coffee in a nice cafe and chat with Chris about immigration. We decide that we know nothing about immigration and neither does anyone else. Maybe. Send letters to Layla, Hannah and Jules. Walk to ...
