Barcelona Part 2

My brother flew in from Sweden and joined us!
We had dinner at a place that had nice food and terrible service!
The next day we went to a fantastic food market...
where we had gelati...
and looked at the beautiful food, they had absolutely everything!


Then James and I went to "Casa de Batlló" a house Gaudi designed in 1877. It is now a museum and it was amazing! I always wanted to see it. There are no straight lines in the building.
The roof with the "Dragon Spine"


Me in front of the mosaic wall in the back terrace.

I love the corridor!
In the evening we went to an amazing restaurant called "Montiel" in the art district. The waiter was fabulous, so nice and knowledgeable.
We had the tasting menu, this ham was maybe the best course according to me! I never had such good cured ham before. With the ham there was lovely bread that we rubbed tomatoes and garlic on.
Dad also liked the ham!
Some of the others thought these sardines were a little bit bland but I thought they were delicious!
Mommy!
The second dessert, chocolate cake and raspberry sorbet, mmm!
The next day we went to Peter's friends flat and had breakfast on her roof terrace.
Peter, dad and James.
Mom...
and me!
We went back to the food market for a bit...
and had a smoothie.
Then we had to go back to London, but hopefully we'll be back soon!

Barcelona Part 1

Here's the first load of the Barcelona pics! We really had a great time, Barcelona is beautiful! I loved how it was so chilled out but still had the big city pulse. The weather was lovely as well, 22 degrees and sunny!
James and I arrived first from London. It was brilliantly quick to get into town from the airport, took about 40 mins in total!
Our hotel was right in the middle of Barcelona, on Las Ramblas. Here's the view from our balcony.
We went down to the harbour and had some tapas.
It was lovely to sit outside and eat (in November!)

My parents joined us later on in the evening, and then we went back and had some more tapas!
The next morning we had breakfast in this café which was one of the oldest in Barcelona.
Daddy!
We passed a cool winebar...
and looked at lovely buildings.
Coffee break.
This amazing house was next to one of Gaudi's houses.
In the afternoon we took a walk on the beach.

I like Sangria!
