Barcelona Day #3 and #4
Yesterday was our last day in Barcelona, Spain. We, once again, woke up early and we took a trip to the Miro museum. I must say, some of his works of art were very....different. It is sometimes hard to see what these artists were thinking when they created some of their pieces. After the museum we went to Parqueguell. From this park we had a MAGNIFICENT view of the city of Barcelona. It was a beautiful view when we got to the top of the hill. From the park, Brady, Morgan and I took a taxi back to Passage de Gracia (where we were staying and had lunch). The taxi driver only spoke Spanish, so if it wasn't for Brady, who had a lot of Spanish in high school, Morgan and I would have been lost.
After lunch, we had the rest of the afternoon/evening to do whatever we wanted. Our usual group of six went to the beach that was located on the Mediterranean Sea. The water was absolutely freezing. However, it was very blue and very clear. It was weird being on a beach in Barcelona in the middle of February.
We then went back to the hostel to get ready and we had dinner at a seafood restaurant located in the Barcelona Port. I had past with shrimp in it. It was very good! After dinner, it was Morgan's birthday, so we decided to go out for the evening with her.
Today, we left Barcelona and we drove for an hour and a half went to the Dali art museum. When you think art cannot get any more unique, it does!!! His works have to be the most unique out of all of the artists we have come across during this trip. After the visit to the museum, we had an approximately five hour trip back to Ambialet. I slept the whole time!!! I think I woke up when we got to Albi, and from there we only had twenty minutes of the trip left. I LOVED Barcelona but, I am so happy to be back "home" in Ambialet!!!
