Then we woke up the next morning and had to leave - no going back now! We flew out at about 3 pm to Barcelona. We spent lots and lots of time carrying big heavy bags up and down steps, through the subway, changing lines until 9 o'clock at night when we got to our place. Then we went out for Tapas.
The next day we had to finish our school work and then we went out and had lunch at the Arc de Triomf (in Barcelona) - if anyone knows who copied who from Paris then please comment. Then we went to the fruit markets and bought peaches and nectarines. I got a mango juice. Then we went to the beach. Dad and Juliet went home. It was SUPER crowded. You couldn't find a single spot. When we got in it suddenly got deep up to your knees then your thighs. The waves were not big like Bronte but we still had to jump them. We forgot our goggles so our eyes got filled with seawater. We got two flavors of icecream on the way home - like double decker.
Our last day - everyone is frowning except Tebby

The crowds at the beach
Thank you very much Phoebe; a great story. I think the arch in Paris is better. The beach certainly was very crowded but at least the water appeared clear and blue.
ReplyDeleteWow Phoebs that beach is super-crowded. Which suburb are you staying in in Barcelona?
ReplyDeleteEl Poblenou
DeleteAha, I know just where you are. I can't remember the exact suburb I was in last time, but it was right near Parc de Joan Miró.
DeleteNone of those beaches you've been visiting existed during my first trip!
We loved the beaches. Especially the one near our house.
DeleteWow, Are there lots of tourist there?
ReplyDeleteHeaps!
