  • On our second day of our visit, we met up with Marie (Marikitt) and she adviced us when we were standing at the Plaza Catalunya to go up the El Conte Ingles building at the corner, go all the way up to the cafetaria and have a nice view on the square down below us.
    She was right!
    It was a marvelous view, pity the glass prevented us from taking the pics we would have loved to take, but Diamonddog managed to take this nice one!

     Im really astonished about the huge quantity of 2 wheels transportation existing in Barcelona. Spetially the 2 wheels culture. I would like to come back and rent a scooter the next trip

     Danny, you did not tell, who the food hunter was!... I had a better time in Barcelona in February this year. Can't say the same for Madrid just recently visited. Nice page and tips.
