Good morning Barcelona

[Brett-EDH]

Last picture from sea today as our cruise has reached Barcelona. Off to a few land days here and then flying home.

The sun is rising as I post these pics.

Ah, Barcelona. Another beautiful, old European city to tour. That's awesome, Brett. Don't be shy about posting this leg of the journey!

Will do. I still have lots of Vatican pics that I didn’t publish yet. A lot of pics.

Been to Barcelona a few time. Grate city. If you're planning a stroll along the vibrant Ramblas, (pickpocket central), leave your bling on the ship, & keep your "bus-fare" home in your sock. There are some grate bars & tapas joints along there. Enjoy.

With the limited connections I have up here I will wait and post some vacation pictures when I get home next week.
And thanks Brett for sharing your fantastic vacation shots!

Sadly, disembarking the ship this morning. We were nearly the last ones off as we had no flight to catch and a hotel to check into. So we let all the other pax duke it out for taxis and whatnot.



Checked into our hotel and then explored on foot until the room was ready.





Barcelona has very unique architecture. This building is in the style of Gaudi but it’s by another famous architect. This is the rear of the building.











This is the front:







The main entrance:





Casa Comalat



Then we went for an early dinner. Been up since 0500. We’re spent.

Calamari, Manchego and spicy chorizo (salami)



Ham and sweet chorizo





And a combo paella (seafood and chicken)
