Last month I took a little vacation to Barcelona. It was my first time in Spain and I loved it. It's a beautiful city with some great museums, churches, and lots of cool modern architecture.
While there I went to Casa Batlló, la Sagrada Familia (including a long and sometimes scary winding staircase, don't look down! check out the picture), Arc de Triumf, Catedral de Barcelona (great views from the roof), tour of Palau de la Musica, La Pedrera (another Gaudi house), Museu Picasso, some cool design stores, and more.
We were staying right on La Rambla which was amazing, just steps away from lots of restaurants, cafes, and bars. I had lots of excellent coffee and chocolate treats throughout the days there. The food highlight was this awesome place called Mamacafé in El Raval. The food and service were amazing.
Thursday night in Barcelona was my big partying night and I made full use of it. I got to a club early, became friends with the bartender, and was getting free shots throughout the night. It was wild. I'm not sure how I wandered home at night, and I didn't wake up on Friday until 7pm!
